Supply Chain

Life is not going to be easy for many retail professionals this year, but supply chain teams are among those going into overdrive.

There are many factors for supply teams to take into consideration when planning business activity for 2011 and this supplement covers many of them in great detail.

Topics covered in this guide include:

• The impact of the Bribery Act
• The need for increased supplier collaboration
• Rising costs within the supply chain, including labour, fuel & steel
• Innovation in the supply chain, including Aurora’s new 90 minute process.
• The need for due diligence to be carried out on all parties involved in the supply chain

All these factors will need to be taking into consideration by supply chain teams but if handled correctly they will enable teams to operate both more effectively and efficiently and they will help improve the service which businesses offer to their customers.
