With over three decades in the industry, Mr. Moonsamy has certainly proven himself in his industry. As a dynamic, results driven leader, Mr. Moonsamy is the Managing Director of Azelis, a leading global innovation service provider in the specialty chemicals and food ingredients industry based out of South Africa.

Under his stewardship, Azelis South Africa has grown beyond being a distributor; it has become a bridge between global innovation and local relevance. But perhaps the most compelling part of Mr. Moonsamy’s story is that every professional milestone reflects a deeply personal mission: to build organizations that empower people, create value with integrity, and leave behind a legacy of purpose.

Beyond South Africa, Mr. Moonnsamy’s leadership scope extends into the broader Middle East and Africa region, where he continues to strengthen Azelis’ lubricants and specialty chemicals portfolio. His strategic oversight ensures that the company’s growth remains cohesive, responsive, and regionally relevant.

Mr. Moonsamy often credits his early scientific training for teaching him the discipline of curiosity, the art of questioning assumptions before acting. That curiosity became the thread connecting his evolution from a research chemist at Chevron to a visionary executive shaping the future of Africa’s specialty-chemicals industry.

Areas of expertise include, but are not limited to business management, business strategy, new business development, leadership, supply chain management, and analytical chemistry.

Before embarking on his professional career path, Mr. Moonsamy pursued a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry and Biochemistry, followed by an Honours degree in Biochemistry from the University of Durban-Westville.

Throughout his illustrious career, Mr. Moonsamy has received many awards and accolades and has been recognized worldwide for his accomplishments. This year he is being considered for a feature in TIP (Top Industry Professionals) Magazine. He will be honored at IAOTP’s annual awards gala at the iconic Plaza Hotel in New York next December for his selection of Top Global Managing Director of the Year for 2026.

The President of the International Association of Top Professionals (IAOTP), Stephanie Cirami, stated: “Choosing Mr. Moonsamy for this honor was an easy decision for our panel to make. He is inspirational, influential, and a true visionary and thought leader. We cannot wait to meet him and celebrate his accomplishments at this year’s gala.”

Looking back, Mr. Moonsamy attributes his success to perseverance and mentors he had along the way. His advice to emerging leaders is to “Be generous with what you know.” For Boston, “knowledge hoarded is opportunity lost. By sharing wisdom freely through mentorship, guidance, and collaboration,” he ensures that leadership becomes a cycle of empowerment, not competition. When not working, he enjoys traveling and spending time with his family. In the future, he looks to continue to grow the business.
