Yet, with the inherent complexities of doing business in an increasingly integrated global economy these demands are not easy to meet. Whether it is different regulatory standards in different regions, or different consumer demands; without a holistic approach that deals with every aspect of the supply chain businesses will face an uphill battle meeting these demands going forward.
