Supply Chain & Logisitics

Impact of the New Geopolitical Reality on Our Supply Chain

In this conference, Christian Sivière from Solimpex Montréal & Ottawa will shed light on the significant impact of geopolitics in a globalized context on our supply chains. We will explore the necessities for producers, importers, distributors, and exporters of food products to stay informed about the latest regulations, including international sanctions and preventive measures against forced or child labor. These new geopolitical realities are increasing the demands for traceability, thus elevating compliance standards to a higher level. Christian will guide us through the challenges and necessary adaptations to navigate effectively in this new reality, highlighting essential strategies to meet contemporary traceability and compliance requirements.
