WinterComes

WinterComes offers a unique experience for networking, knowledge sharing, and collaboration. The event enables service provider, retail, and manufacturer companies to have in-depth conversations about the strategic implications of new technologies for their businesses in the FMCG industry, with direct access to the innovators of these ground-breaking technologies.

The event links innovative projects with businesses, allowing service providers the opportunity to present their solutions to businesses that may be interested without putting pressure on delegates to invest.

WinterComes takes place from the 25th – 29th of September at Sitges, Spain.

The week-long gathering includes Steering Committee Meetings and the two day Supply Chain Conference.

The Consumer Goods Forum (CGF)’s global Supply Chain Conference convenes one global and diverse network with a shared mission: “to unlock the potential of global supply chains and be the foundation for which consumer trust is built upon”.

The conference provides the perfect blend of shared learning, best practises, challenges, cutting-edge innovations, and networking. It brings together senior supply chain, logistics, and data experts responsible for planning, specifying, installing, maintaining, and moving products all over the world, to address challenges such as global shortages, fragmentation and complexity, rising prices, geopolitics, and failing trust.

The CGF’s global Supply Chain Conference is where the future of supply chains is created.

The Supply Chain Conference forms part of WinterComes gathering and takes place from the 26th – 27th of September 2023, in Sitges Spain.

The two day Conference includes a store tour and a full day conference.
