His appointment follows FourKites' evolution to offer the Intelligent Control Tower™, a platform combining supply chain network data with digital twins and AI agents to autonomously act on visibility data and prevent disruptions [1].

Ghory's extensive career includes top executive roles at leading consumer products companies such as Procter & Gamble and Kimberly-Clark.

His experience in operational intelligence and digital transformation makes him an exceptional addition to FourKites' advisory council [1].

The Intelligent Control Tower™ platform developed by FourKites processes over 3.2 million supply chain events daily, helping 1,600+ global brands prevent disruptions, make faster decisions, and move from reactive tracking to proactive supply chain orchestration [1]. Ghory's appointment underscores FourKites' commitment to understanding the practical realities supply chain leaders face, ensuring that the company's solutions address genuine market needs [1].

FourKites' customer co-innovation approach has defined the company since its founding. Through initiatives like the FourKites IdeaExchange, customer challenges directly shape the company's product roadmap, with more than 60% of features originating from customer suggestions. This collaborative approach has produced breakthrough solutions, enabling FourKites to transform how enterprises manage their supply chains [1].
