Expana presents Agri-Food for Thought, the podcast series for agriculture and food professionals.
Today we discuss the role of procurement, and how procurement decisions turn market insight into business advantage.
This is a complex issue, a lot more than one may think. Procurement professionals operate in a high-pressure environment characterized by aggressive goals, tight deadlines, and complex supply chains. But there are ways to stay ahead of the game.
On today’s episode, we welcome Janet Lung Standing. Janet is a board advisor and former CPO with over 30 years of global leadership experience at Mars, Danone and Johnson Matthey. She has transformed procurement and supply chains across Fast Moving Consumer Goods, chemicals and energy transition sectors, delivering resilience, sustainability, and strategic partnerships. Today, she bridges the gap between AI innovators in Procurement and the Corporate practitioners. Janet is passionate about harnessing AI to create efficient, inclusive and sustainable supply chains, and brings her expertise to boards shaping the future of procurement.
She also joined the Expana Revenue Advisory Board earlier this year and her help has been instrumental as we continue to roll out the Expana data, news, and forecasting platform to the global agri-food sector.
This episode is hosted by Simon Duke, Managing Editor – EMEA.
