Coca-Cola North America's Sara Park joins Pigment co-CEO Eléonore Crespo to talk about building a demand-driven supply chain across one of the most complex distribution networks in the world – starting with Excel, running straight into COVID, and coming out the other side with a planning model built for volatility.
Sara shares what the pandemic clarified about the relationship between supply and demand, how she approached coordinating 65 bottling partners with a single platform, and the principle that now shapes every initiative she runs: if you build something people genuinely want, adoption takes care of itself. She also reflects on where AI fits into the future of supply chain planning and what she believes it means for the people doing the work.
