Advantage conference: Suppliers on a blacklist

Friday, 16 May, 2014 0

 

Advantage is putting some suppliers on a blacklist.

Outlining the changes being made by the consortium, managing director Julia Lo Bue-Said revealed it was taking a hard line with some companies.

"It is not about black-listing companies, well it is really," she said.

"We will not work with everyone – we are not a walkover."

Advantage has over 200 commercial agreements with partners, but expects those relationships to change as it contracts more product directly.

"Our partnerships are key.  We’re not interested in one-night stands, it’s about the long term."
