Sedex expands presence in the US
We’re excited to announce that Sedex will be expanding our presence in the United States, as part of the Sedex 2025 Strategy. As part of this expansion, we are pleased to announce the appointment of our new VP Sales – North America, Nick Kempf, who is based in Chicago and will lead the commercial growth in the US. Sedex will continue to support our US based members from our global offices.
This growth in the US signifies an important step in Sedex’s ambitious 2025 Strategy, as we continue to transform our organisation – developing a new platform and expanding our tools and services to meet the needs of our members and businesses, to build more responsible supply chains.
Sedex Commercial Director Mark Hooper says,
“Sedex’s expansion into the US will enable us to respond more quickly and effectively to the needs of this market and underpins our commitment to support more organisations globally to improve the lives of the people they impact.
Today’s supply chains are complex and our core purpose at Sedex is to provide trusted information, tools and services that enables businesses to manage their operations effectively and source responsibly.”
Nick Kemp, VP Sales – North America says,
“With the US being a major part of the global supply chain, Sedex’s expansion offers organisations in the US a local opportunity to improve the lives of people throughout their entire supply chain and eliminate unnecessary risks to employees and the environment.”
About the Sedex 2025 Strategy
Sedex’s aim is to improve the lives of people working in supply chains through the tools and services we provide our members. In 2020, Sedex launched a new five-year strategy, aiming to grow our impact on people via our 60,000 members – from the 33 million people who we currently reach, to 150 million people, by 2025.
Central to this growth and impact is transforming the Sedex platform – to be the leading responsible sourcing platform globally for building ethical supply chains. Successfully managing business operations and sourcing responsibly relies on visibility, transparency, and strong stakeholder relationships.
In 2021 and 2022 we’re building a Sedex platform with new functionality, embedding automation, supercharging performance, and delivering a next generation experience for our members. This will offer increased flexibility, speed, and value to businesses to effectively respond to changing customer and market demands.
Sedex puts our members at the heart of what we do and tailors solutions to meet your goals and challenges, ensuring we’re delivering the positive change that’s important to you. If you would like to learn more about the Sedex Strategy, please contact us at communications@sedex.com.
