Behind all institutions, businesses, organisations - large or small - are people. Ultimately, it is people who are the end users of the large and complex value added chains that drive today’s global economy. And people all over the world share similar emotions, aspirations, hopes and dreams. Sometimes it is easy to lose sight of this when surrounded by stories of market manipulation, government control, environmental risks and the divide between rich and poor that exists today. However, at S’GAP we believe that creating value is about people connecting with people. Throughout history, from early barter to the Phoenicians to Marco Polo and beyond, trade has been all about exchanges between different peoples where both parties are better off, both economically and socially.
