Building healthier supply chains: the business case


This white paper makes the business case for investing in nutrition. It highlights three key points for investing in nutrition in agricultural supply chains:

  1. the case for productivity,
  2. the case for a secured healthy future workforce and
  3. the case for brand integrity and ethical considerations. 

Nutrition should be an important element of any corporate strategy to proactively increase productivity in the short and medium term while defending brand integrity and reputation. When done right, these interventions can lead to healthy and wealthy farming families and satisfied consumers, both now and in the future. A detailed description of the program model of nutrition-secure supply chains is published as the second white paper of this series.
