WHY FOOD AND BEVERAGE EXECUTIVES TRUST SCM TALENT GROUP:

It starts with the fact that our supply chain recruiting experience began 20 years ago at the Coca-Cola Company. The connections built during that time and across the end-to-end supply chain have only grown and developed into a vast network of relationships within the food and beverage sector. Because of this background, we have unique access to specialized talent pools that others may not be able to reach. We work closely with you to understand exactly what you need and we understand the language of food and beverage supply chain professionals because that’s where we got our start.

Your food and beverage supply chain warrants industry expertise and an up-to-date understanding of the current trends and insights evolving in this sector. Without tailored talent solutions for your supply chain, you will lose your competitive edge. As we always say, your people keep you competitive. We understand the nuance required to hire in this space, including rigorous compliance with FDA, USDA and other regulatory requirements as well as essential certifications needed to compete in the field. We strive to work with speed and precision to ensure that your hiring windows are minimized and your supply chains are future focused as we build out business lines with the best talent.
