Ahead of his Keynote session on Day 1, Gerardo de la Torre sat down with the Automotive Logistics team to discuss how compliance, collaboration, increased digitalisation and more are influencing Nissan’s supply chain management (SCM).  

In his role as regional senior director of SCM for Nissan Group of Americas, he leads the SCM Innovation department. The department has developed a strategic playbook that uses cross-functional and digital approaches “to anticipate, react with information and stay ahead together as one team.” The playbook better equips the carmarker to optimise network designs and operations, and deal with unexpected disruptions.
