🌱 The Story of Connectivity in the Food Supply Chain 🌱 Yesterday, Kathryn Gramling, Americas Consumer Leader at EY, and Bill Toney, VP of Global Food Solutions and Adam Anderson, VP of Food at Avery Dennison spoke about back-of-house transformation at the 2024 Restaurant Leadership Conference. As our global population swells, the pressure on our food supply chain intensifies. Traditional methods struggle to keep pace with demand, leading to inefficiencies, waste, and uncertainty. Picture a farmer, toiling under the scorching sun, unsure if their harvest will reach its destination before spoiling. Imagine a distributor, grappling with outdated tracking systems, unable to pinpoint the source of contamination in a batch of produce. These are the challenges plaguing our food supply chain—a complex web of producers, distributors, and retailers stretched to its limits. But amidst these challenges lies a beacon of hope: connectivity. With #EverythingConnected by Avery Dennison, every node in the supply chain seamlessly communicates, eradicating inefficiencies, reducing waste, and instilling confidence. It's a vision of collaboration and transparency, where every stakeholder plays a part in nourishing our world.
