ECR UK is where the industry meets to develop leadership initiatives on the biggest issues affecting the food and grocery supply chain. Its origins are in the USA back in 1993, and the UK initiative was formed in 1996, arriving in a market that was characterised by confrontational working relationships.
As well as a focus on consumers, ECR breaks down barriers between trading partners and internal business functions; barriers that stop an organisation working effectively.
ECR UK provides industry leadership, education and guidance on key issues. In many cases the most contentious issues can affect the whole industry and cannot be resolved independently by either the supplier or retailer.
Over 4000 people from across 40 countries have benefited from the best practice developed by ECR UK.
