Standards & Sustainability: The Secret Drivers of Global Trade

Sustainable Supply Chain

Send me a message

Hello, everyone, I'm thrilled to bring you one of the final episodes of the Digital Supply Chain podcast in its current format before our exciting rebrand next week – more details on that soon! In this captivating episode, I'm joined by Reid Jackson, Vice President of Business Development at GS1 US, for a deep dive into the critical role of standards in shaping the digital supply chain.
We explore how standards like barcodes, QR codes, and RFID have evolved beyond mere identification markers to become fundamental components in global trade and sustainability efforts. Reid illuminates their significance in product traceability and the recycling process, highlighting their impact on environmental sustainability.
A particularly intriguing part of our discussion centres on how the Covid-19 pandemic has acted as a catalyst, accelerating the adoption of these technologies and reshaping the supply chain landscape. Reid shares fascinating insights into the future potential of these technologies in supply chain management, and dispels some common myths about the redundancy of barcodes in the age of computer vision.
As I prepare to transition to the new podcast branding, this episode stands as a testament to the ongoing innovation and evolution in the supply chain sector. It’s a fitting conversation as we look towards the future and the exciting developments it holds.
So, tune in to this insightful and thought-provoking episode. It's not just a journey through the critical role of standards in supply chain efficiency but also a prelude to the exciting new phase of this podcast.
Stay tuned for more information on our rebrand, and join in as I continue to explore the dynamic world of supply chain management.
