The recent horse meat scandal brought the complexity of global supply chains and the difficulties of controlling them, sharply into focus. Supply chains are dominated by the dogma of price, however the lowest price doesn't actually mean lower costs and it can put reputation on the line when the price quest leads to a fragmented supply chain. This film, introduced by ITN's Natasha Kaplinksy, was produced for the Global Logistics and Transport News channel, a partnership between ITN Productions and the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT), aims to capture the current state of global supply chains and how to manage them.
