Why Now is the Time to Consider Supply Chain Resilience

A proactive supply chain resilience strategy is essential for global brands - today probably more than ever before. Consumer demand moves fast, so anticipating potential challenges such as natural disasters, market fluctuations, or geopolitical tensions is critical for the success of all our customers. It can have a real impact on their brand reputation.

A combination of Swiss Precision and Asian Drive
At Ryder Industries, we have built our business by establishing resilient supply chains, with positive relationships that offer greater certainty during periods of disruption. This approach not only ensures the continuous flow of premium goods for our customers, but also allows them to adapt swiftly to changes, in turn maintaining their customers' trust.

We have three robust facilities in both China and Vietnam, which provide advanced manufacturing hubs, skilled workforces, and effective production capabilities. Within Asia, Ryder Industries offers a well-established network of suppliers, allowing us to rapidly scale production to meet demand from our customers. And with deep integration into global logistics networks, we can offer fast and efficient shipping to markets. These factors make it an ideal base for producing high-quality goods and with exceptional levels of precision.

Diversification brings resilience
Most international businesses have to carefully manage shifting global tariffs and trade policies. We are conscious to support our customers in maximising their operational efficiencies. For example, Ryder Industries Vietnam provides an effective addition to our core manufacturing capabilities. Through the exchange between our cross-border teams, we have been able to establish consistent standards and processes across our sites. And our attention to supply chain management, precision manufacturing processes and fastidious quality management systems apply in each of our facilities, irrespective of the countries they are situated in.

Additionally, Vietnam itself has a growing manufacturing sector, offering us strategic advantages with its skilled labour force and high-quality production capabilities. This dual-location approach helps us provide our customers with the best possible outcomes, while maintaining resilient and consistent production.

It all starts with respect
The strength of a supply chain ultimately depends on the quality of relationships with suppliers. A manufacturing partner with trusted and long-standing supplier connections ensures better communication, reliability and access to critical raw materials. Ryder Industries was founded with a firm belief in respect. As such, we treat our partners as an extension to our business: we can only succeed if they succeed. These relationships foster collaboration, allowing quicker problem-solving and greater flexibility in responding to unexpected challenges.

This commitment brings plenty of advantages to our customers. A dependable network of suppliers has allowed us to win and grow relationships with some of the world's leading brands in their sector - because amongst a range of benefits that we offer, we can maintain production quality and timelines, even when disruptions occur.

Supply chain resilience is one of the cores to our business
Ultimately, supply chain success hinges on combining location diversity, a deep understanding of customer demand, and strong, proactive supply chain management. At Ryder Industries we blend all of these elements to remain agile in an ever-evolving market. This integrated approach plays a part in helping our customers to achieve sustained growth with greater resilience.
