The agri-food business is experiencing rapid global expansion, driven by evolving consumer preferences and cross-border business opportunities. As markets grow, so do the complexities of ensuring a safe, nutritious, and high-quality food supply. Consumers today demand not just food but also transparency through nutrition labeling, certification, and branding, increasing the pressure on procurement and supply chain strategies.
Operating in this dynamic environment requires a deep understanding of the global environment, new business opportunities, strategies for competitiveness, managing culture and people, effective leadership skills and team building, managing logistics, dealing with risks and strategies involved in financing.
This comprehensive 24-session programme is designed to equip participants with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate these challenges effectively. With a strong global perspective, the programme addresses key managerial and strategic aspects of agri-food business operations.
Additionally, a one-day field visit will provide participants with practical insights, enriching their learning experience through real-world exposure to industry best practices.
