Back to the 50 years of France Supply Chain

WRITTEN ON January 30, 2023

On December 8, 2022, France Supply Chain celebrated 50 years of collaboration and collective intelligence with its members. 50 years that we share our Supply Chain to transform companies through ideas and avant-garde projects.

This evening was resolutely turned towards the future with exceptional interventions.

Back to the genesis of the concepts of logistics and supply chain and the rich history of the association with Aurélien Rouquet, Professor of Logistics at Neoma Business School and Secretary General of the AIRL-SCM.

Did you know that logistics was born to win wars?

A thought-provoking keynote on the evolution of the world and society by Olivier Babeau, Economist and founding President of the Sapiens Institute.

"In the machine age, staying human will require companies to become partners in helping humans stay relevant in the digital age. Supply chain plays a critical role in transforming companies to meet this new challenge."

Which strategic orientations for France Supply Chain in the years to come, presented by our president Yann De Feraudy.

"We believe that we can collectively contribute to improving the world and our practices through the generous and passionate commitment of our members."

Startups session led by our partner SprintProject with Shopopop, Agrikolis and Viabeez.

"Talking about innovation outside of technological innovation [...] talking about solidarity" Hervé Dechene Cofounder & VP Strategy

Promotion of Supply Chain professions by LAB Jeunes students

For this occasion, Radio Supply Chain was present and recorded several podcasts with our members. You will discover the initiatives and works of the different LABS of France Supply Chain as well as the good mood and the communicative passion of the interviewees. We will soon share with you the different podcasts recorded.

Thanks to all our partners (Wavestone, SAP, Generix, BlueYonder, EOL, PTV Group, SprintProject and SopraSteria Next) for accompanying us during this year 2022 and during this event.

We are convinced that together we can design today's Supply Chain to offer a sustainable future to all.

And last but not least, we would like to warmly thank our members for this privileged moment of sharing and reflection.

LIVE WEBINAR: Attractiveness of Supply Chain professions, the challenges of discovery and promotion

TUESDAY 4 MAY from 11:00 to 11:45

Supply Chain suffers from old clichés. Little known and very often summed up as masculine, physical and not very rewarding tasks, the Supply Chain professions are struggling to attract the younger generations.

Faced with the lack of attractiveness of the sector, how can vocations be created? What levers could be used to to enhance the value of the professions and change mentalities?

I register

Dear friends,
I hope that you have managed to spend a wonderful holiday season with your friends chers !
For 2021, I wish you success in business, happiness in family and friendships, and of course good health.
We have become aware of our vulnerability to the "little things" because like every year, 2020 has had its share of surprises.
Among these surprises and consequences of the health crisis, we have seen exceptional growth (in 3 or 4 digits) in e-commerce volumes that our internal and external teams have faced.

However, e-commerce is at the crossroads of many Supply Chain paths:

Customer Satisfaction ... for meeting the very short deadlines to deliver a "perfect" order...

Technology... to forecast demand, to take, allocate or execute orders, to allocate inventory...

Omnicanality to leverage physical stores or multiply delivery modes

The Logistics Strategy of sub-contracting or internalization, mechanization or not, to get through the peaks .

Sustainable Development with the impact of non-returnable packaging, overpackaging and the negative externalities of urban deliveries.

At France Supply Chain, we know that technology and tools are important, but what is most important is the internal or external teams that we lead that make and will make the difference.
It is by sharing our experiences and co-constructing new solutions that we will make progress in our businesses.

Our manifesto, written at the end of the work carried out during the summer of 2020, is the materialization of our project that we want to be sustainable, in a changing world, where our businesses, highlighted in 2020, are eagerly awaited. This manifesto is proof that together we can go further. Let's trace our path.

Very friendly,

Yann de Feraudy

THE SUPPLY CHAIN "MADE IN FRANCE":
WHAT IF WE CHANGE THE WORLD?

The Supply Chain "Made in France", we want it to be innovative, enterprising, fully aware of its ecological footprint and the new demands of consumers. We want it to be stronger, bigger and more decisive. And always profoundly human and vibrant, like all those who keep its pulse beating on a daily basis.

DEVELOP, INNOVATE: A LOCAL DYNAMISM THAT TAKES ON BOARD

Our Supply Chain model is agile, connected, resilient. It contributes to the local development of companies as well as to their growth by enabling them to export worldwide. The example of national champions such as Michelin, L'Oréal and Schneider are clear evidence of this. Our sector now employs 1.8 million people in France and we do not intend to stop there.

AN URGENCY AND A STRONG DESIRE: BUILDING A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE

The shift to a more sustainable production method is inevitable. All the indicators point to the urgency to act, with the Covid-19 health crisis in mind. We are aware of this and we want to be an active part of the change.
Supply that preserves resources, less polluting transport...
Every choice we make is a responsibility.

AT THE HEART OF OUR COMPANIES: BUILDING TOMORROW'S WORLD TOGETHER

Within France Supply Chain, the managers of more than 450 companies exchange and find together solutions to fully succeed in the transformation of their companies. The "LABS" that we run are great places for dialogue and progress: best practices, conferences, workshops on digital or sustainable development.
All of these interactions feed in depth into the work of those who are driving the evolution of the profession. A profession that offers first jobs, career stepping stones, and qualifying paths, a profession that gives everyone a chance, and where no barriers stand in the way of success. This is what the Supply Chain is all about, all of which contribute to the sector's influence.
