When companies face a “NO” from their logistics partners, what options do they have?

“Non-essential” products represent up to 60% of a vendor’s revenue and, due to the present situation, many are now facing 20+ day transit times. This calls for an immediate need for alternative solutions for the affected companies and meet the final customer’s demands.  

In every industry, the ultimate dream is to have a consistent growth thought the years. All companies thrive to consolidate themselves while expanding their business, their client portfolio and, of course, their profits. But sometimes, growth can bring more trouble than expected. In industries such as high-tech, with the continuous changing of technology, a rapid market growth can demonstrate some limitations such as lack of visibility or no control on warehousing and transportation costs. It can even show a redundancy, as the same problems continue to arise time and time again.
