Elders increases commitment to livestock supply chain

Elders Rural Services managing director Mike Guerin says Elders will create a Customer Solutions Management unit solely focused on meeting customer demand for Australian meat and livestock.

“As well as servicing Australian agricultural producers, one of the most important core functions performed by Elders Rural Services is the supply of livestock to our processor, feedlot, live export and retail purchasing customers from our producer client base,” Mr Guerin said.

The new Customer Solutions Management unit will be led by Elders’ National Marketing Manager for Meat & Livestock, Hamish Browning, reporting to Elders’ General Manager Meat & Livestock, Jack Gleeson.

Mr Gleeson says the core functions of this Customer Solutions Management business unit are to:

• Develop and deliver improved and targeted service to key livestock purchasing customers.

• Facilitate the introduction of strategic innovations that drive value creation for key purchasing customer businesses.

• Mobilise, influence, and coordinate network supply chain capabilities to meet identified purchasing customer demand requirements.
