Every year, Saskatchewan shines a spotlight on its supply chain heroes during Supply Chain Week, celebrated from September 21 to 27. This year, the Government of Saskatchewan is emphasizing the crucial role that these professionals play in keeping the economy moving, especially as we face increasing global trade challenges.

With an impressive 70% of what Saskatchewan produces being exported, it's vital for the province to enhance its supply chain. Trade and Export Development Minister, Warren Kaeding, echoes this sentiment, stating that a reliable supply chain is essential for economic prosperity and job security.

As the world faces mounting tariffs and trade pressures, Saskatchewan is stepping up its game by investing in a resilient supply chain. New agreements with other provinces aim to boost interprovincial trade and strengthen economic cooperation throughout Canada.

This week isn't just about policies; it's a celebration! DonnaLyn Thorsteinson from Supply Chain Canada - Saskatchewan highlights the everyday heroes in procurement, logistics, and distribution who make sure our shelves are stocked and services are running smoothly.

Many exciting events are planned, including the Saskatchewan Supply Chain Connect Conference and Tradeshow, where industry leaders will share innovative strategies aimed at securing a thriving supply chain for the future.

So, let's raise a glass to the dedication and resilience of our supply chain professionals. They play a vital role in connecting our communities and driving economic growth!
