This article, titled “The Small Business Blind Spot in Supply Chains” talks about a topic we have been posting on for a while –
- Over 70% of a company’s greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) are via its supply chain
- Climate change is causing companies to set goals to reduce their GHG
- 90% of these companies then force their suppliers to take action on sustainability
- The majority of their SME suppliers are not prepared for this
The article does not suggest the client company give its SMEs a pass. It says the client company should start the process with its supply chain NOW, so SMEs can decide if they wish to remain a vendor, and if so, how they are going to achieve their sustainability targets.
If you are a SME supply chain vendor and want to proactively get ahead of this in order to take market share, watch this master class, then contact us.
