Dave Christie, Supply Chain Specialist, dives into the world of Supply Chain - the implications and key issues since Covid-19, how NZ and global companies are responding, the trends, practical ways to improve your businesses supply chain and light at the end of the tunnel. This webinar was recorded with an understanding that Supply Chain has been and is a big pain point for SME businesses in NZ right now. It is a resource for those businesses within The Icehouse network and beyond, thanks to NZTE and Dave Christie.


3 Tips to Support Your Supply Chain

1: Prioritise your products. A, B, C priorities and focus on the revenue generating opportunities.

2: Form a closer relationship with your key suppliers. Get them closer to your business workings, share up line so your relationship can be more than a transaction.

3: Plan with the wider team. Hold specific supply chain meetings with key roles in the business coming together to make supply chain decisions instead of having one person manage it or the business owner holding the weight and feeling siloed.

NZTE is a great organisation supporting NZ businesses in their growth, with great exporting resources and offerings.
