The discussion explores the challenges of automating legacy (brownfield) warehouses, which represent 80% of existing facilities. These sites are often overlooked by the first wave of automation due to high costs, floor prep requirements, and potential downtime.

As the co-founder of Future Insights Network and host of the Transform Talks podcast, she brings insights from over 200 interviews with global executives.

| 2/23/26 | 66: Tackling Food Waste Like a Boss: Kristy Ryan on the Impact Supply Chain | In this episode of the She Supply Chains Podcast, Kristy Ryan, Chief Operating Officer at Move for Hunger, breaks down how she transitioned from a diverse background in insurance into the world of logistics. She describes Move for Hunger as a logistics nonprofit that views waste and inefficiencies as underutilized capacity rather than failures. A major focus of the conversation is the "Charity Freight" model, which Kristy helped launch to address the fact that 55 truckloads of food and beverage items are lost per shipper annually. This reverse logistics model captures value by redirecting surplus food through existing lanes without adding new trucks or emissions. Kristy also challenges the misconception that nonprofits are less efficient than the private sector, arguing that missions deserve discipline and that efficiency is the most compassionate option because it ensures resources reach those in need faster. ✨ Connect with Kristy! 📱LinkedIn - Kristy 💻Learn more on the topics discussed here: ReFED Insights: How Food Waste Reduction Is Taking Shape In 2026 Food Logistics: Top 5 Food Waste Trends to Expect in 2026 💵 Arise Financial Check out Arise Financial Coaching and their Financial Goal Accelerator program, and let them know She Supply Chains sent you! ✨ Connect with us! 📱LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/she-supply-chains/ 📱INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/shesupplychainspodcast/ 📱TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@shesupplychainspodcast 🎧 Call to Action Follow She Supply Chains on your favorite podcast app Leave us a review — it helps more listeners find the show Share this episode with someone you think would love it | 28m 21s | ||||||
