Patagonia's move to an open account sourcing platform: Taking global business to the next level
World class global supply chains address the big picture - beyond physical and logistical elements of transactions. Today's supply chain leaders recognize that financial aspects of the supply chain are just as important. Movement towards open account transactions and the decline in letters of credit is nothing new in this age of global trade. What differentiates Patagonia's supply chain finance strategy is the level of automation, speed, transparency and accuracy that is gained - not only for Patagonia but also for its partners. Patagonia achieves lower transaction costs, margin improvements and better relationships due to:
- automatic processing of documents
- accurate cash flow forecasts
- less human errors
- more visibility for all parties involved
Join us on July 22, 2008 at 2pm ET and learn how Patagonia generates a competitive advantage in its supply chain.

Re-Examining Supply Chain Risk:
Failure to Take a Holistic Approach Impacts the Bottom Line
Join TradeCard and World Trade Magazine as they present the results of a supply chain study that examines automation and risk in today's consumer product and retail supply chains.
In today's complex sourcing environment, it is critical to understand all of the risks that can jeopardize the success of sourcing operations. Study results show consumer goods companies and retailers are placing very little emphasis on monitoring supply chain risk. Many companies today still rely on slow manual processes that offer only limited visibility. This lack of visibility leaves them exposed to risk when events or problems occur.
Hear an analysis of results and recommendations for addressing risk in the supply chain. Join TradeCard and World Trade Magazine on September 30th at 2pm ET.
