With the considerable supply chain disruptions brought on by the pandemic and amid escalating inflation, supply chain resilience is more critical than ever before. The unforeseen pandemic of late has presented a range of challenges that many supply chains were clearly—often admittedly—unprepared for.

Consumers may (consciously or unconsciously) seek out a colour and cue associated with a brand or, increasingly, more sustainable materials (like choosing paper over plastic for their favourite products in store).  

Supply chain issues have affected businesses in every industry, both across the UK and globally. Some experts predict the continuation of backlogs and shortages for up to at least another year as the impact of volatile global markets continues to have an effect. Most recently, industrial action at the UK’s largest container port in Felixstowe threatens further delays in the movement of goods.

The world is more connected than ever before, and the challenges of the future are ones that we will have to face together. Climate change is one such challenge and has the potential to cause severe disruption to global supply chains if directors do not plan proactively against it.
