You'll learn how to break down your cost structure, understand what levers you actually have, and apply simple but effective tools across the supply chain (from forecasting to KPI tracking) to make better decisions. Whether you run a bakery, distribute beverages, or manufacture snacks, you'll walk away with actionable tactics tailored to your size and reality.The course is divided into short, high-impact lessons and includes real examples, battle-tested strategies, and downloadable tools. Here we show what works, what doesn't, and how to get things done with limited time and resources.If you're tired of a chaotic organization, volatile margins, and constant firefighting, this course will help you turn your business into a more stable, profitable operation that is equipped to navigate the current challenges of the industry.
