“If your business plan isn’t solid, if your market isn’t solid, you’re still going nowhere. You’re just spending somebody else’s money and you’re going to fail.”

– JP Wiggins, 3Gtms

Beyond their common focus on supply chain innovation and digital transformation, JP Wiggins, Will Haraway, and Scott Luton share another passion: baseball. Whether it is the mechanics of the game, the statistics, or the written/unwritten rules, they follow the game closely. But even JP, a certified umpire, couldn’t read the ‘industry pitch calls’ in 2020.

JP Wiggins manages channels and partnerships for 3Gtms and Will Haraway is the Chief Content Officer for Lead Coverage and the Founder & Lead Evangelist at Backbeat Marketing.

In this conversation, JP and Will share their points of view with Host Scott Luton:

· Why the speed of innovative transformation is accelerating from years to months and what that means for companies and industries

· Why transportation management systems (TMS) are the fastest growing segment in supply chain management

· The geopolitical complexities that are not only increasing costs, but they are also making export container capacity hard to find

Combatiendo el Hambre un Camión a la vez

Hablemos sobre un tema que nos afecta a todos: el desperdicio de alimentos y la inseguridad alimentaria.En este episodio nuestra host Sofía Rivas habla con Stephanie De La Hoz, directora de programas en Move for Hunger; organización sin fines de lucro que lucha contra el hambre. ¿Sabías que en Estados Unidos se desperdicia el 40% de los alimentos mientras 1 de cada 5 niños pasa hambre? Move for Hunger nace para combatir estos problemas. Lo que comenzó como una idea sencilla—rescatar la comida que las familias dejaban al mudarse—se ha convertido en una red nacional que moviliza a más de 1,300 empresas para recolectar y transportar alimentos que, de otro modo, acabarían en la basura. Stephanie nos explica cómo han logrado conectar excedentes con bancos de alimentos, incluso en situaciones críticas como entregas rechazadas por los retailers. A través de colaboración con transportistas, 3PLs y CPGs, están construyendo una red logística con propósito. Si trabajas en logística, transporte, producción o distribución de alimentos, este episodio es una invitación a ser parte del cambio. Porque la comida no debería ser desperdiciada, y el hambre no debería ser una estadística más. ¿Te interesa ser parte de la red de transportistas? Únete aquí:…
