Supply Chain Conference
2022 Programme
In 2015, after 3 years of research, about 30 enthusiastic persons started creating their dream to setup a modern Milkman.
This modern Milkman is focused on home delivery of groceries in the most efficient way. The company was built from scratch and created a completely new supply chain infrastructure enabling the customer to order a complete basket of -ultra fresh- groceries, select their most convenient delivery time and get on the minute accurate information on the delivery time.
The modern Milkman seems to have created a very sustainable supply chain infrastructure which enables free delivery with groceries at the lowest price.
After starting in the Netherlands in 2015, Picnic started in Germany in 2018 and in France in 2021.
Delegates will learn about background, infrastructure, culture, sustainability, and growth of the Picnic model.

Today’s consumer products companies are facing pressure on two fronts: from consumers to deliver personalized products, a seamless channel experience and frustration-free fulfilment in a sustainable way; and from retailers to improve service offers across channels and demonstrate strong operational performance. To satisfy these needs, brands must rethink the role of the supply chain and how it can be used to support innovation, achieve operational excellence, and drive sustainable, profitable growth.
In this session, Mayank Sharma, Global Consumer Products Supply Chain Lead, Capgemini, will explore how brands can enhance existing supply chain capabilities, such as integrated business planning and distributed order management, to unlock new business models, optimize decision-making, and satisfy complex customer requirements to become ‘preferred suppliers.’ During this presentation, we will also draw on our company’s extensive client experience to share specific examples of how supply chain transformation has helped brands build new channel offerings, maximize revenue opportunities, and ultimately enable the company’s growth ambitions.
