Procurement Under Pressure: Strategies for Sourcing Success Amid Trade Shifts
New survey results: How tariffs, price pressures, and supply risks are reshaping procurement in 2025 — and how leading companies are responding.
Based on the perspectives of over 200 procurement and business leaders across Europe, the Inverto Raw Materials Study 2025 offers a strategic snapshot of how organizations are navigating an increasingly complex and dynamic sourcing landscape.
The findings reveal a clear shift: from reactive responses to structural resilience — through regionalization, smarter pricing models, and digital enablement.
