A supply chain built for growth: strategy for a leading U.S. beer business
The beer division of a major beer, wine and spirits company was growing fast and needed a supply chain strategy that kept pace with the brand.
The challenge
Demand for the division’s brands was growing faster than its supply chain had been designed for. Leadership needed to know which investments would protect customer service and support growth, and where inventory and operating cost could come out, in one plan rather than a list of projects.
Mohannad Gomaa led the design and development of the supply chain strategy for the beer division.
What we did
- Aligned the strategic business drivers, from brand growth to margin, with supply chain priorities.
- Assessed customer service levels and inventory operations across the network.
