What Singapore Can Teach Canadian Grocers, MNP Latest Report on G20 Food Rankings plus guest Vinayak Madappa, Strategic Advisory Partner, Capgemini
Vin explains why Canada’s heavy reliance on trade with the U.S. and Mexico leaves fresh produce, seafood and imported proteins most at risk. He also looks at why 89% of Canadian organizations report raw-material scarcity, compared with 67% in the U.S., and why the nine-to-12-month stockpiles many companies built to ride out tariffs are reaching a tipping point.
He makes the case for counter-seasonal sourcing from the Southern Hemisphere and AI-driven inventory intelligence, and for treating the supply chain as a business-continuity asset rather than a cost centre.
