About Intella Advisory

Built on real operational execution, not a consulting framework.

Intella Advisory was founded by Leke Omole, whose career sits at the intersection of strategic sourcing, procurement, and international logistics. That work has included supplier management and contract negotiation, freight forwarding and cross-border transportation, Canadian customs and CBSA processes, food safety and HACCP-aligned compliance, and the day-to-day realities of import and warehouse operations, including claims investigation and freight documentation.

Alongside that, he has built and operated logistics systems and run an international cargo and logistics business, giving Intella Advisory practical experience with process design, supply-chain optimization, and the technology that holds an operation together.

Intella Advisory was created to help businesses navigate the complexity between regulation, supply chain, and commercial execution. We combine regulatory knowledge, supply-chain experience, and real operational execution. That combination is what separates this firm from a generic consulting practice.
