Dylan Chew brings more than 15 years of hands-on experience in franchised distribution, manufacturing, and the independent market. He joined Fusion Worldwide in 2018 and now leads global purchasing operations, overseeing supplier strategy, regional execution, and sourcing decisions that support some of the world’s largest manufacturers.
As Vice President of Global Purchasing, Dylan plays a key role in helping Fusion respond to supply chain volatility and customer demand. We spoke with him about how his team stays agile, how e-commerce has changed the way we work, and how becoming a parent shaped his approach to leadership.
“In a volatile market, flexibility is everything.”
No two days look the same in Dylan’s world. “We’re constantly assessing risk, exploring new supply channels, and building partnerships to support our customers,” he says. “It’s not just about sourcing components—it’s about keeping our clients ahead of disruption.”
That work spans three regions and requires seamless collaboration between global teams. Under Dylan’s leadership, Fusion has strengthened supplier relationships, improved purchasing responsiveness, and sharpened its ability to anticipate shifts in semiconductor demand.
“Speed, transparency, and trust—that’s what our platform delivers.”
For Dylan, Fusion’s E-Commerce platform is more than a digital storefront—it’s a strategic asset. “It gives our customers access to real-time pricing and live inventory, which is critical in our line of work,” he explains. “That kind of visibility empowers smarter, faster decision-making.”
On the purchasing side, the platform enhances internal agility—streamlining RFQs, enabling BOM uploads, and reducing the time between need and fulfillment. It’s just one of the ways Fusion blends technology with service to meet today’s challenges.

“Every improvement we make comes from listening to the market.”
Fusion’s e-commerce platform has come a long way since its launch, and Dylan has had a front-row seat to its evolution. “We’ve introduced more intuitive search features, improved navigation, and tools that offer deeper market insight,” he says. “It’s all rooted in feedback—from customers and from our teams on the ground.”
That continuous improvement mindset is core to Dylan’s leadership approach. “We’re not here to build something and walk away. We’re here to adapt, optimize, and stay ahead of what the market demands.”
“Everyone’s aligned around the same goal: delivering results.”
When asked what makes Fusion unique, Dylan points to the culture. “There’s a sense of shared accountability here. No matter your role or region, you know you’re contributing to something bigger.”
That clarity and momentum are what drew him to the company in the first place—and what keep him inspired to lead with intention. “It’s a place where good ideas move quickly, and people are empowered to act.”
“Fatherhood gave me a new lens—and a new sense of purpose.”
Since the arrival of his twin daughters, Dylan says his priorities have shifted. “There’s nothing like becoming a parent to reframe how you approach challenges,” he reflects. “I find myself more patient, more deliberate—and more committed than ever to building something lasting.”
That motivation translates to the work, too. “We’re not just solving problems today—we’re thinking long-term for our customers. And now, for my family as well.”
“Be ready to grow—fast.”
Dylan has simple advice for those considering a career at Fusion: “If you’re adaptable, proactive, and eager to learn, you’ll thrive here. This is a fast-paced environment with huge potential for impact. You won’t just see the results of your work—you’ll feel it.”
