The global food supply chain is one of the most complex, yet important logistics programs faced by companies in the food and beverage industry. Manufacturers in the food and beverage industry are continuously being pressured from multiple sides of the value chain. The continuous shift in the balance of power within the industry from manufacturers to retailers escalates this pressure even more. Moreover, logistics and supply chain management are a critical concern for companies as they are strictly monitored by governmental bodies to ensure that they do not pose any kind of health or food safety risk for customers and expose their businesses to a large amount of fines if they do so. The outdated supply chain management systems are also posing safety concerns as they can lead to inventory losses.

According to the procurement experts at SpendEdge, “Companies operating in the food and beverage industry are asset-intensive and face both low margins and high demand variability along with various internal and external pressures. This makes global supply chain management a necessity for businesses to address logistics and supply chain management needs."
