PANUNG
Logistics, Receiving & Documentation Lead (Goods Control)
Ying Ao Sauce & Grill

Panung is the Logistics, Receiving & Documentation Lead — responsible for one of the most critical control points in the entire group: receiving and verifying goods, documenting condition and quantities, and ensuring every item is tracked properly from arrival to final destination. In fast-scaling businesses, a huge amount of money is lost through missing items, unclear records, supplier disputes, and “nobody knows what arrived” situations — Panung’s role prevents that. Panung is the person who makes sure shipments, deliveries, and internal transfers are handled with discipline, evidence, and clean records.

Panung’s day-to-day responsibilities include receiving deliveries at HQ and sites, checking packing lists against actual quantities, identifying shortages or damage immediately, taking clear photo evidence, labeling and organizing items by destination (restaurant vs factory vs office), and maintaining a traceable documentation trail that leadership can rely on. This is especially important during large container unloads and multi-site distribution — where Panung ensures items are sorted correctly, counted properly, and handed over with accountability.

Panung is highly detail-oriented and structured. Strengths include strong documentation habits, accuracy under pressure, inventory and warehouse organization, and the ability to coordinate with drivers, restaurant managers, and site teams so deliveries do not become chaotic. Panung also supports purchase follow-up by providing clear receiving confirmations, which helps accounting and procurement close loops (what was ordered vs what arrived vs what is missing). The result is tighter control, fewer disputes, and faster resolution when something is wrong — because Panung always has the evidence and the facts.

Outside of work, Panung is known for being calm, reliable, and focused. Panung is the kind of person who prefers doing things the right way — organized, labeled, and properly documented — and that personality is exactly what makes Panung so valuable in logistics and receiving control.

Operations & Logistics Coordinator
Ying Ao Sauce & Grill

Anuwat (Jojo) is a key operations and logistics coordinator supporting the day-to-day execution across Ying Ao Sauce & Grill and Ying Ao Mookrata. Jojo is the type of team member who keeps the engine running behind the scenes — coordinating movement of goods, supporting store needs, and ensuring that urgent tasks are handled quickly, correctly, and with full accountability. In a multi-location business, consistency comes from systems — but speed comes from people who can execute, communicate clearly, and solve problems in real time. Jojo brings that execution mindset.

Jojo’s experience is rooted in operational coordination: managing task lists, following up with teams, aligning priorities between restaurants and HQ, and supporting procurement and delivery schedules. Jojo is trusted for being dependable under pressure — the person you can assign a complex, time-sensitive job to and know it will be completed with updates, proof, and closure. This includes supporting vendor coordination, tracking deliveries, assisting with inventory movement, and helping restaurant teams close operational gaps quickly (repairs, replacement items, urgent supplies, and on-site troubleshooting support).

Strengths and skill set include strong organization and follow-through, fast communication across Thai/English environments (as applicable), vendor and driver coordination, basic inventory tracking discipline, and an “ownership” mentality — meaning Jojo doesn’t just report problems; Jojo actively pushes to solve them. Jojo supports the leadership team by reducing execution load, keeping details from slipping, and creating operational stability across multiple moving parts.
