Colleague Focus – Meet Lily Meng
This edition of our Colleague Focus is centered on Lily Meng.
Lily Meng has worked at Mar-Bal for close to four years. She is the Supply Chain and Customer Service Manager at our Shanghai, China office. Lily has recently been celebrating the Chinese New Year, where families come together to celebrate the New Year with a variety of festivities.
Lily shared that Mar-Bal is like family to her and has given her support for skill training over the years.
Delving further into Lily’s career, we asked Lily what her proudest moment at Mar-Bal was. “I am proud that with my boss’ support, the Asia supply chain can go effective and efficient and satisfy our customer and sales team,” Lily explained.

Nick Scolaro, the Purchasing and Global Sourcing Manager at our Chagrin Falls, OH location has had the privilege to work with Lily and expressed his gratitude for her kindness and hard work.
“Lily treats her customers well and her suppliers with respect,” Scolaro shared. “It is a privilege to work with a professional in the field who keeps up with her continuing education and always looks for ways to apply best practices. It is great to chat with Lily whenever we can.”
Lily shared that she looks up to her mother. “[She is] always happy to meet any difficulty and work hard to solve life’s difficulties,” Lily said.
In her free time, Lily enjoys reading or playing mahjong and walking with family and friends. She 
enjoys vacationing at Qingdao, located in China’s eastern Shandong province and bordering the Yellow Sea. Here, you can find skyscrapers, parks and beaches.
When it comes to television, she enjoys shows that will put a smile on her face. “I like funny shows such as entertainment programs or soap programs,” Lily said.
Happy New Year to you and your family, Lily! THANK YOU for all of your hard work; it is greatly appreciated.
