Pakistan

Supply Chain in Pakistan is a topic which is rapidly gaining importance. Originally considered as a very passive field, CEO's and top level management have decided to invest heavily in training talent to create efficient and resiient supply chains. Pakistan with its excellent resources and industry have a promising future, yet sectarian and poitical violence tend to cripple the economy's life support system. Supply Chain security and risk management in these environments becomes extremey important. The Government of Pakistan realizes the need for heavy investment in logistics infrastructure to aid the country's growth and we at ISCEA SCNext are excited to be part of this initiave in Pakistan.

We want to reform supply chain education in Pakistan by helping career growth of all professionals in the field of supply chain and logistics in the country, providing the appropriate resources and platform for education, training and knowledge sharing
