601: From deforestation to data breaches — the new frontline of supply chain compliance

About this episode

This episode discusses the evolving risks in food supply chains, including cybersecurity threats and regulatory changes.

What if the greatest threat to your supply chain isn't a disease outbreak or a logistics failure, but a ransomware attack on a supplier you've never met? The regulatory and risk landscape facing food businesses has shifted dramatically, from The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, to EU Deforestation Regulation, and the increased risk of cyber attacks in food supply chains. In this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, recorded at our Dublin event, three specialists in supply chain technology and compliance unpack what all of this means in practice. The question the industry faces is whether it can treat data with the same rigour it has always applied to physical ingredients.
