This episode looks at how digital technology can support greener operations, using real customer stories rather than abstract theory. The discussion starts with a short look at how a connected supply chain can be defined, then moves on to concrete cases from several industries.
Examples include an agricultural business using sensors for precision agriculture, where equal or greater output comes from fewer inputs, and a seafood producer using blockchain to follow tuna from its origin to the shop shelf. A carpet manufacturer making a range from fully recycled bottles is covered too, along with the question of whether buyers demand such products more strongly. A paper producer applying integrated business planning to cut waste, with benefits for forests, is also discussed, and the conversation closes on circular economy examples.
