Sustainable Supply Chains – (for procurement professionals)

 

Improve the sustainability of your supply chain and discover local innovative suppliers who can lessen your environmental impact.

 

Sustainable Supply Chains – 18th November, Crawley

This event focuses on helping organisations meet with suppliers who can provide innovative sustainable products and services that will help you lessen the environmental impact and improve the sustainability of your supply chain. The issue of sustainability is here to stay and companies now need to start looking at their supply chains and change the way they procure.

 

Significant savings on your time and budget

Suppliers pre-matched to your requirements come to see you, all on one day and under one roof. How much of your time and budget would normally be consumed in identifying new sustainable suppliers, visiting them at their premises, or finding them at trade shows? At the event, you simply attend for one day and meet them all!

 

Pre-arranged meetings with suppliers selected according to your criteria

You tell us what your specific areas of interest and needs are, and we use this information to research and identify suppliers that match your criteria. On the day of the event you simply arrive at your own meeting booth ready for a series of private, pre-scheduled meetings with innovative suppliers matched to your requirements.

 

Free furnished stand, free catering and networking with like minded buying organisations

We provide you with all on-site facilities at our expense. Your own costs are restricted to travelling to and from the event – and, of course, a day of your time.

 

"As a senior decision maker and budget holder in your organisation you need to ensure that you are embedding sustainable procurement practices in your supply chain, and that you are choosing to work with those suppliers who can in turn demonstrate sustainable practices in their own supply chains. This event is an ideal platform on which you can meet other decision makers from the region's leading companies to swap ideas on best practice, and also for you to meet a wide range of supplying companies who are keen to help you address your key areas of risk and offer you the sustainable solutions you are looking for." Shaun McCarthy, Director, Action Sustainability
