renewed perspective on holding predictions lightly , as we know nothing is certain .
That said , in five years I would like to see HSM as five times bigger ! We anticipated the continued growth of our global customer base , including in Europe , Middle East , Africa ( EMEA ) and Asia-Pacific ( APAC ) regions , and look to achieve a five times growth rate of our current customer base . While we may consider expanding HSM into other verticals in future years , our focus remains on hospitality at the present time .
Overall , in five years ’ time , I ’ m excited to see HSM realizing the same level of growth and success we can measure from our last conversation with Supply Chain World five years ago . And perhaps five is the magic number , across the board . I ’ d like to see us five times bigger across the globe .
Is there anything else you would like to add ? I ’ d like to personally send a shoutout to every supply chain professional and organization around the globe . We , as a community , have made it through some of the worst years our industry has ever seen , and while these past few years have been incredibly challenging , it is also incredibly gratifying to see the supply chain world get the newfound recognition and awareness we have all so rightfully received .
I also want to applaud the inspiring team members that make HSM such a powerhouse . Everything we have been able to accomplish is a testament to their persistence , camaraderie , and brilliant problem-solving skills .
We at HSM believe that an agile , innovative supply chain is integral to the strategic success of our enterprise , our brands , and our owners . It ’ s truly great to see so many other industries realizing the vital importance of supply chain to their business development and to the world at large . So , here ’ s to our fellow supply chain professionals everywhere , and may the coming seasons bring us shared success and sustainable growth . ■
