Institutional Membership

Why Institutional Membership Matters

Join AISCR, Africa’s leading research and innovation network dedicated to transforming supply chain systems across public and private sectors.

Today’s organizations face three major challenges in achieving supply chain excellence:

  1. Limited access to peer-to-peer networking and thought leadership.
  2. Difficulty keeping up with global and regional trends.
  3. Gaps in learning new skills and applying research-driven insights.

Join today and be recognized as a leader in supporting supply chain professionalization. As a business, it is crucial to support your procurement team develop capacity and access to the latest research trends and practical tools to drive business intelligence and the triple bottom line.

With an integrated suite of professional resources, education, and business networking, AISCR corporate membership connects and provides opportunities for your entire supply chain team with resources to gain insights, intelligence, and people that drive business results.
