Sustainability was a major focus of many companies post pandemic and will remain front and center in companies’ purpose and plans post pandemic.
A recent Oxford Economics study of 1,000 supply chain executives concluded that “Sustainability will be a growing focus for organizations across industries over the coming years as they seek to meet internal goals, satisfy consumer demand, and comply with regulations.” In addition, a majority of respondents from the study say their organizations have a plan to reduce carbon emissions (71%), with supply chain leaders (the top 12% of respondents) even more in tune with the importance of sustainability, with 86% saying a sustainable supply chain is a competitive differentiator.
