Streamlining the
Supply Chain
The supply chains that deliver food, beverages, household, and personal care products to American homes are incredibly complex, involving thousands of processes, decisions and variables that remain largely invisible to consumers but are essential for getting them the products they depend on daily.
Americans trust the consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry to deliver these items safely and reliably — a responsibility the industry takes seriously.
What We Do
Advocate for a forward-looking, integrated view of supply chain conditions in the United States through continued expansion of the Freight Logistics Optimization Works (FLOW), an innovative public-private partnership enabling unprecedented levels of data-sharing and visibility across the nation’s constantly moving supply chain.
Promote affordability and access for consumers by working to remove barriers and increase efficiency across supply chain systems through practical policy solutions such as enabling greater truck weight flexibility, improving and tracking rail performance metrics, and promoting continued investment in our ports, roads and supply chain infrastructure.
Lead industry efforts in identifying the major issues, challenges and opportunities facing the nation’s supply chain systems and what is needed to ensure that the CPG industry can provide consumers with the affordable products they rely on every day.
