Buying and Selling
At Alliance Agrifood we undertake a proven, structured approach to procurement – one that provides buyer’s and seller’s transparency, every step of the way.
Firstly, we conduct a comprehensive review of your sourcing and supply arrangements including an analysis of expenditure, current contracts, suppliers, processes and systems.
Developing a deeper understanding of your business requirements, devising and implementing strategies to satisfy your procurement needs in the most efficient manner, and approaching the market to develop alternative sourcing solutions, are what sets us apart. Our team will spend as much time as is necessary to truly understand your operational needs and expectations.
It is important to note that Alliance Agrifood is not tied to any one particular vendor or supplier. We provide unbiased advice in the best interests of your current and future procurement needs.
And equally importantly, price is not always the driving factor in our recommendations. It’s about achieving the optimal balance between service quality, timing, risk and price.
On an ongoing basis, all delivery outcomes are continually evaluated to ensure you are receiving maximum benefit from our procurement solutions, both now and in the future.
Dairy Risk Management
Since the beginning of this century, dairy price volatility has increased tremendously, driven by a variety of unforeseen market impacts: weather and geopolitical events, new sources of demand and supply, and changes in currency markets and macroeconomic conditions.
This creates a challenge and significant risk for companies wanting to manage their business sustainably and causes havoc for both end users and manufacturers alike: missed budgets, constantly changing plans and an inability to invest with confidence among them.
Both our buyers and dairy products suppliers profit from price stability so we have developed a variety of tools to manage their price risk exposure.
It is important to assess and plan for the different risks we invariably can face. In addition to physical loss or damage to goods, we need to plan for problems of cash flow or non-payment by customers, and the rise and fall of commodity prices.
