Cloud labelling to become table stakes in supply chains
Summary
The global report (‘Top 5 Trends in Labeling and Packaging Artwork 2022’), which draws on insights from nearly 1,000 professionals across industries in 55 countries, found a significant shift in business attitudes toward cloud technology over the last 12 months. With the continued surge in online shopping comes a renewed focus on labeling and packaging to accommodate increased packing and shipping as consumers move away from traditional retail and purchasing from brick-and-mortar establishments. This trend was highlighted in Loftware’s survey, with almost half (43%) of respondents expecting their organisation to adopt more of an e-commerce business model as a direct result of the pandemic. As a result, a growing number of companies are investing in cloud-based technologies that allow employees to work, collaborate, and contribute even when they’re not physically onsite. This is why it’s vital that business leaders think differently about processes, operations, and supply chains to ensure prosperity,” added Roffman.
