Sustainable Supply Chain
The Sustainable Supply Chain podcast is where sustainability meets supply chain transformation - no fluff, no filters, just real conversations that matter.
I’m Tom Raftery, and every Monday at 7am CET, I sit down with global supply chain leaders, startup founders, tech disruptors, and corporate changemakers to unpack the systems, data, and decisions shaping the future of sustainable operations. If your job touches supply chains, ESG, risk, resilience, or digital transformation, this podcast is made for you.
Formerly known as the Digital Supply Chain podcast, this show has evolved into a platform laser-focused on climate-smart innovation, ethical sourcing, decarbonisation strategies, circular economy models, compliance, traceability, and tech-led solutions that scale. From Scope 3 emissions to supply chain transparency, we get into the gritty details, and yes, we have a bit of fun while we’re at it.
⚡ Sustainable Supply Chain+ subscribers get full access to all 460+ episodes in the archive.
🆓 Everyone can listen free to the latest 30 days of episodes, no strings attached.
Our format is unscripted, informal, and always actionable. You’ll hear what’s working, what isn’t, and what’s next from the people doing the work, whether that’s tackling forced labour risks, leveraging AI for supplier monitoring, or rethinking procurement as a sustainability engine.

Get access to the entire back catalog of the showHi there, Digital Supply Chain enthusiasts! In this special episode, I'm thrilled to share some exciting news that I've been eager to reveal.
I've launched a new feature that will let us engage with each other in a whole new way: a Digital Supply Chain podcast fan page on Podinbox. This isn't just a place to catch up on episodes; it's a platform where you can connect directly with me, share your thoughts, ask questions, make suggestions, or even record an audio message that might be featured in future episodes.
You can find this interactive space at podinbox.com/dsc. Here, I invite you to turn our podcast into a conversation. Let's learn from each other, share insights, and create a community around our shared interest in the digital supply chain.
In today's episode, I also kick off our first discussion with a question that's been on my mind: "What do you think is the most significant challenge facing the digital supply chain industry in the next 5 years, and what potential solutions do you foresee?" I'm eager to hear your thoughts. Record an audio message on the page with your response, and you might just hear it on the next episode.
Podcasting can often feel like a one-way street, but I believe in the power of dialogue. That's why I'm inviting you to make this podcast a two-way conversation. Your engagement is what makes this podcast come alive, and I can't wait to see how our discussions unfold on the fan page.
As always, thank you for your continued support and engagement. This podcast wouldn't be the same without you. Until next time!

Hi everyone, and welcome. This is Tom Raftery, host of the Digital Supply Chain podcast. Today's episode is a little bit different, but it's something I've been looking forward to sharing with you. I've set up a brand new feature for the podcast, a fan page, hosted by pod inbox, which you can find directly podinbox.com/dsc and I'll link it in the show notes of this episode. This isn't just any fan page, it's a space for you to connect directly with me and with fellow listeners to share your thoughts, ask questions, make suggestions, and even record an audio message that might be featured in future episodes. Podcasting can sometimes feel like a one-way street. Sometimes feels like I'm, you know, shouting into the void. I'm talking into a microphone, but I can't hear your responses, your questions, your insights. That's why I've set up this fan page to facilitate a two-way communication, to create a community and to make this podcast a more collaborative experience. One of the things I love about the digital supply chain community is our ability to learn from each other. That's why the fan page includes a chat feature. Whether you're a seasoned professional or a student just starting in the field, your insights matter. I encourage you to use this feature to engage in discussions, share your experiences, and learn from the diverse perspectives of our listener community. To kick things off, I want to pose a question to all of you. What do you think is the most significant challenge facing the digital supply chain industry in the next five years, and what are some potential solutions that you foresee? I invite you to leave an audio message on the page with your thoughts. It's your chance to have your voice heard on the podcast, because in the next episode I'll feature some of your responses to spark a conversation that'll continue on the fan page. Your engagement is what makes this podcast what it is. I'm excited to see how this new feature will bring us closer as a community and deepen our understanding of the digital supply chain. So head over to the fan page. As I said, it's at podinbox.com/dsc where DSC is short for digital supply chain. So podinbox.com/dsc. Let's make this podcast a true conversation. Thanks for your continued support and engagement. This podcast wouldn't be the same without you. Until next time, this is Tom Raftery signing off.
