MTN Group – Global Sourcing & Supply Chain

As Africa's largest mobile network operator, we manage over USD 12 billion in annual spend across 21,000 suppliers and manage complex supply chain operations.

Our procurement transformation program was aimed at achieving a complete overhaul of Sourcing operations. Unlike most procurement transformations that focus on specific projects or digital enablement, we embarked on a 360-degree transformation journey that transformed our procurement function from a cost centre to a value creation function. This includes a complete revamp of our Procurement operating model for enhanced agility, a sustainable sourcing strategy to reduce scope 3 emissions, data-driven decision-making, upskilling talent pool and more.
