Insights - Sector Supply Chain Maps 

In 2021, SAOS began working with key sector businesses and organisations on the foresighting, analysis, and mapping of more than twenty major food and drink supply chains. 

The maps we've created offer a unique overview of the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats for each sector, and have been widely acknowledged as providing an invaluable starting point for discussion for each sector's supply chain partners.

With SAOS's expertise, and the collective will of all stakeholders, we can work together to tackle some of the sectorial issues identified, developing robust, practical solutions and helping to mitigate risk.

We have produced a comprehensive analysis of the whole supply chain for each sector, click to view the Scottish Malting Barley and Distilling supply chain map 

We have also created a summary for each sector, providing key facts, examples of these are:

All the documents are reviewed twice a year, and updated with information from industry and Government sources. The full list of sectors covered is below.
