As New Zealand and Europe are capped in their production and the US holds the best cards for increasing production, producers can grow their share on the world market. But when demand of traditional customers and markets don't keep up with the pace of US production, producers need to find alternatives.
A greater focus on export results in more exposure and bigger logistical challenges. How to mitigate (counterparty) risk and manage the increased workload? Is scaling the organization the solution or should you look at cooperating with industry specialists?
Technology enables organizations to adjust to and keep up with these developments and create opportunities in order to give them an advantage towards competitors. In this webinar, panelists discuss how the digitization of different aspects of the supply chain can benefit all stakeholders and yield better results for manufacturers, processors and end buyers.
