Feed supply chain — origin to feeder

Feed procurement fails at the joints — origin to port, port to silo, silo to mill, mill to feeder. Each transition is a cost, quality and biosecurity event. This is the map of the whole chain.

  • Origin to port
  • Ocean & discharge
  • Storage & biosecurity

Visual scope of procurement · supply chain

Origin to load port

Truck or rail from processor to port silo. Weight tickets, cleanliness certificates, transit time SLA in the supplier contract.

FAQ

Common questions

Como Feed Supply Chain Management se aplica ao meu programa de compras?
Adaptamos a estrutura ao seu volume anual, número de fornecedores, mercados de origem e Incoterms preferidos. A primeira reunião define KPIs, cronograma e fornecedores-alvo.
Quanto tempo até ver economia com esta abordagem?
Os primeiros benchmarks surgem em 2–3 semanas; economias contratuais sustentáveis costumam se consolidar entre o T1 e o T2 após adotar um RFQ estruturado.
Como se garantem qualidade e rastreabilidade?
Exigimos GMP+/FAMI-QS, COA por lote, controle de micotoxinas e auditoria documental antes de homologar qualquer fornecedor.
Oferecem apoio em financiamento e Incoterms?
Sim — LC, seguro de crédito, ECA e estruturação CIF/CFR/DAP conforme o destino, sujeito a aprovação de bancos e seguradoras.
