Is disaster risk breaking global supply chains? | UNDRR

📦 Every product you use depends on a supply chain. But what happens when disaster strikes? From warehouses and transport systems to workers and goods, supply chains are deeply interconnected—and increasingly vulnerable to risk. One disruption can trigger a cascade: 🚧 Infrastructure becomes inaccessible ⏳ Operations slow down or stop 📉 Output drops and deliveries are delayed 🌡️ Products are damaged by heat, moisture, or contamination 👷 Workers face growing risks that halt production 🌍 Across regions, disasters are reshaping how goods move—and how economies function. 💡 The solution? Businesses must understand and manage disaster risk across their entire supply chain. Because resilient supply chains don’t just protect profits—they protect communities and stabilize economies.
