Circular Supply Chain Podcast
Circular Supply Chain Podcast
Podcast Description
Circularity is a practical approach to designing supply chains that perform reliably under pressure. On this podcast, we talk with leaders and experts who are applying concrete methods to reduce waste, improve material flows, and strengthen operations. Together, they are adapting legacy systems to meet today’s demands and build supply networks that can stand the test of time.
