1. Supply Base Collaboration Programs
With extended global supply-chains
representing up to 80% of a brand’s
environmental impacts and risk, there
has never been a more critical time for
organizations to both collaborate with and
strengthen their supply base relationships.
And yet, faced with thousands of
suppliers across different categories and
geographies, this has never been more
challenging.
Our 2degrees supply-base programs
enable global corporations to bring
thousands of their supplier companies,
large and small, together to unlock shared
value and expertise, facilitate group
procurement of solutions, and then track
and measure outcomes. The result is
€millions of savings gained from reductions
in waste, water and energy and the
creation of a more transparent and secure
client supply base.
Working with clients such as Asda-
Walmart, Tesco and GSK, our programs are
driving forward efficiencies and reducing
impacts whilst also helping develop world
class supply bases.
Part of the job of a great trader is to build a great supply base. The way you
build a great supply base is to make sure they are efficient and sustainable.
The Asda Save & Exchange is creating value and not extracting value from
the supply chain. The measure of success is that people are already saving
money.

I can contact my opposites in big companies. There are now no inter-silos saying – ‘can’t tell you this, can’t tell you that’. It’s gone. We are sharing with Greencore and Arla Foods to discuss LED lighting and centrifugal technology for separating water. I would never have done this without this exchange. It’s a phenomenal tool.
