With economic changes on the horizon, the 2025 supply chain must be ready to adapt to commercial and economic trends that will shape—and sometimes steer—the industry. While certain disruptions are inevitable, businesses can still minimize vulnerabilities and seize opportunities with the right strategic approach. In this session, we’ll leverage insights from Enable’s State of Volume Rebates Survey to discuss how supply chain leaders can remain proactive rather than reactive in the year ahead. We’ll examine key commercial forces that are expected to influence supply chains, from evolving pricing and rebate management to strategic procurement practices that enhance resilience and drive growth. Attendees will leave with a practical toolbox to make their business less of a passenger and more of a driver in 2025.

After a year of supplier shortages, demand fluctuations, increased operating costs, and liquidity pinches, supply chain leaders face a crossroads — either maintain the status quo and hope for the best, or reevaluate their business model to ensure they can weather the next storm. For many innovative business professionals, this means embracing new ways of thinking and capitalizing on process improvement and automation to realize real results on their balance sheet.
