Increasing Connectivity for Enhanced Food Supply Chain Resilience
(World Bank, 2024)
Preventing Supply Chain Disruptions
Even with record food production, global hunger is intensifying, and food insecurity remains especially severe in fragile and poorly connected regions because of high transport costs. In some cases, logistics account for half of the delivered price of food products. The World Bank helps countries target the vulnerabilities in food supply chains and build robust transport networks. World Bank-supported projects in regional logistics, integrated transport, and rural access have strengthened supply chains to ensure food reaches those who need it most, leading to greater food security and reduced food-price volatility.
