We recognise this continues to be a challenging time, with cost pressures and global uncertainty creating an increasingly complex environment for our clients to navigate. We’re continuing to stay close to the global events that are currently placing pressures on the supply chain.

While inflation pressure has been delayed, the risk has not been removed – headline food inflation may be low today, but cost pressures continue to build across the market. The positive is that this delayed impact gives us more time to plan ahead, understand where you may be most exposed and act early to protect value, choice and availability.
