Sydney Badger On a Mission to Make the Fashion Supply Chain More Sustainable
Ready for some inspiration? At Let’s Talk Supply Chain, we understand the power in promoting the female trailblazers who are making big moves and propelling our industry forward. Every month we’re proud to feature woman leaders who are boldly changing the face of supply chain—highlighting thought leaders, sharing their stories, achievements, and advice for others coming up the ranks.
And this month, we’re proud to feature Sydney Badger in our Women In Supply Chain™ blog series. Sydney is the co-founder for Public Habit, an organization committing to cutting the waste out of the fashion supply chain.
She has over a decade of experience in fashion, product marketing, and learning what fuels consumers—and supply chains. Sydney has a bachelor’s degree in International Relations and Chinese from Brown University and a bachelor’s degree in Advanced Chinese from Capital Normal University.
Meet Our Sponsor
This Women In Supply Chain™ feature was made possible by our sponsor, Shipz. The middle layer of companies that import and export want to work with forwarders, but are limited by the current process. Meanwhile, forwarders are equally strained by the amount of “free” work they do, and by being treated as a bank—they would be happy to focus on what they do best—moving freight. There is a growing disconnect, that could be devastating to the industry if left unaddressed.
Shipz is a neutral bid-and-shipping platform for mid-market shippers, providing forwarders with a safe space to stay in the ring. Forwarders benefit from direct access to shippers and instant bookings. Shipz closes the gap and alleviates the hassle for carriers by providing shippers directly with shipping info, benchmarking, and payment options.
