Supply Chain Resilience

Making global supply chains stronger for people, the planet, and long-term growth

The world is changing, and companies must constantly navigate new supply chain risks and opportunities. We help companies anticipate and address social and environmental risk factors while taking steps to boost the resilience, sustainability, and equity of complex global supply chains.

Supply-Chain-Resilience-and-Sustainability

Climate-Smart Supply Chains

Climate change is reshaping the risk profile of global supply chains — from droughts and floods disrupting agricultural sourcing to extreme weather threatening logistics networks and supplier viability. We help companies understand the climate threats embedded in their value chains, develop adaptation strategies, and implement market-led solutions that build long-term resilience. Our work spans smallholder farmer support, regenerative agriculture, and multi-stakeholder partnerships that co-invest in the adaptive capacity of suppliers and communities on the front lines of climate risk.

Women's Empowerment in Supply Chains

Women represent nearly half the global agriculture workforce yet face persistent barriers to training, technology, finance, and land — gaps that constrain farm productivity and supply chain performance. We design and implement gender-smart supply chain strategies that close these gaps and generate measurable business returns. Our work with PepsiCo produced yield gains of up to 32%, a 26% drop in rejection rates, and income growth for thousands of women farmers.

Inclusive & Responsible Sourcing

Forward-thinking companies see their value chains as a force for good — advancing fair labor, supplier diversity, and responsible procurement practices while reducing social and reputational risk. We help companies apply a social lens to supply chain mapping and due diligence, develop supplier diversity strategies, and build the partner ecosystems needed to drive change at scale. Our experience spans agricultural commodities, consumer goods, and complex multi-tier supply chains across emerging markets.

Partnership Strategy for Supply Chain Impact

The trickiest supply chain challenges — from deforestation to labor exploitation — cannot be solved by any single company acting alone. We help companies identify, design, and manage cross-sector and pre-competitive partnerships to tackle shared risks and create collective opportunity. We bring deep experience translating partnership ambition into on-the-ground results.
