Build big bold businesses that drive change

Consumerism has changed for good and it has changed for the better. The conscious consumer demands that brands show more integrity and authenticity in their approach to business and they want to engage with them in both online and offline worlds. The ever-evolving demands of the consumer have influenced mass changes in the consumer goods space, and it’s often the high-growth, innovative brands that we represent who are fastest off the starting line.

Why are they so important?

Entrepreneurs are increasingly using their ventures as a platform for doing good at a time when business arguably plays a more influential role in the future state of our planet and people than politics. So, from a socio-economic and environmental perspective, the world would be a better place if the authentic high-growth brands changing the game can scale their businesses to truly influence on a macro level.

 

 

So, why don’t they?

Well, they try, but they operate in an industry that is only just waking up to the value that can be unlocked from supporting and nurturing small business. Entrepreneurs are passionate by their very nature — they drive progress through their drive and determination. However, quite often we see great brands that just fail to leave their mark due to a lack of resources, skills, or knowledge required to build a scalable ‘good’ business.

Know when to ask for help

Amongst the many things that we do at YF, we have a credible team of supply chain experts who we have assembled from both SME and corporate worlds to assist brands in building the ‘good businesses’ alluded to earlier. We’ve worked with brands of all shapes and sizes in a multitude of ways to assist in unlocking their growth; avoiding costly mistakes, de-risking the business, and putting the necessary thought into preparing for those big growth opportunities.

The best founders learn to capitalise on their strengths early and surround themselves with experts to fill capability gaps; outsourced partners and in-house team.
