30 Aug Webinar – Inflation outlook: cost optimization with Biospringer yeast extracts
During this 20-minutes webinar, our experts explain how yeast extracts can be a perfect fit to face current inflation challenges, as it may replace and optimize food manufacturers’ food ingredients.
Market insight: disruption in the supply chain
Everyone is aware of the recent inflation worldwide. Early 2022, the price of all goods and services significantly increased in Asia Pacific. To name a few, the supply-demand mismatches from the surge demand for goods, pandemic-induced disruptions, rising energy and commodity prices are big concerns in Asia.
This is due to three main factors responsible for disrupting the supply chain. First of all, the war between Russia and Ukraine is causing the surge of commodity prices, with oil and gas supplies being cut off, it drove up the cost of fertilizers. That directly impacted the cost from farm to fork. Secondly, as commonly known, the COVID-19 pandemic has an important impact on the global economy that disrupted the supply chain with factory closures, shipping congestions and container shortages, to name a few. Finally, the climate change causing many natural disasters impacted drastically the harvest of food ingredients, which explains the cost increase as well.
