Overview
Discover how Canadian innovation is transforming food supply chains—helping businesses overcome volatility, enhance resilience, and grow.
About This Event
The Canadian Food Innovation Network (CFIN) invites you to a live webinar unpacking the findings from our latest report, Building Resilient Food Supply Chains Through Canadian Innovation. Rising input costs, unpredictable sourcing, and shrinking margins aren’t temporary pressures—they’re structural challenges for Canadian food businesses. This session will explore how Canadian-built technologies and solutions are already strengthening domestic processing, automating operations, and improving traceability across the sector.
Join us for a practical session covering:
- Where your supply chain exposure originates—and why input cost volatility isn’t going away on its own
- What Canadian-built technologies are available now to strengthen domestic processing, automate operations, and improve traceability
- How to evaluate where investments in automation, domestic sourcing, and digital infrastructure can improve your margins and reduce exposure to shocks
