Global supply chains are facing ever-increasing amounts of macro level disruption, at the same time as they are at their most complex and fragmented state in the history of global trade. From the volatility brought by trade wars and tariffs, to sharp shocks of pandemics and natural disasters, to rising costs and changing consumer demands, global sourcing faces new pressures daily. Meanwhile, driven by consumer demand and competition, supply chain cycles are ever-accelerating, with the previous 2-4 retail seasons giving way to 10+ collections per year, and fast fashion operating on models approximating just-time-time inventory.

As a result, today’s brands and retailers are expected to navigate the challenging and fast-moving landscape of global sourcing while continuing to provide high-quality, safe and compliant products to their markets.

We will discuss how brands and retailers can take supply chain visibility to a whole new level and empower their vendor network – all while ensuring high product quality and timely delivery throughout their sourcing ecosystem.
