WORK HISTORY
Supporting Uk Food & Beverage Brands and Manufacturers @Centric Software
Manchester, GB
At Centric Software, my role is to establish and build relationships with food and beverage brands to help them transform how products their are designed, developed, and brought to market, from first concept to final shelf. My top priority is to support our customers in smarter, faster, more sustainable decision-making across the product lifecycle: reducing waste, increasing transparency, and helping teams collaborate more effectively in a fast-moving, complex industry. My focus is on helping purpose-driven companies harness digital tools to- Improve product quality while cutting time to market - Reduce overproduction and resource waste - Improve supply chain resilience and ethics - Stay compliant in a demanding regulatory environment - Align commercial goals with sustainability values This builds on my background in digital transformation and complex product development, where I specialised in using digital twins to simulate and optimise everything from design to manufacture. Now, I’m applying that same systems thinking to the food system - where change is urgently needed, and the opportunity for impact is enormous. Better products mean a better world, and that starts with how we make them.

ABOUT RYAN RAFFERTY
Of all the industries I’ve worked in, Food & Beverage offers the greatest opportunity to make a meaningful difference. We all need to eat and drink to survive, and how we grow, produce, and distribute food touches everything from climate and biodiversity to labour rights and health. My background in digital transformation, Industry 4.0, and product lifecycle management has always been about reducing waste, increasing agility, and making smarter decisions - digitally, where the cost of change is low. Now at Centric, I get to apply that same mindset to a platform that helps brands create better, more sustainable products from farm to fork. I believe we can - and in fact must - build ethical, efficient, and responsible supply chains. And I’m here to work with people who believe the same. “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.” — Dr. Seuss
