“Just because you don’t make a product here doesn’t mean that some part of U.S. industry wasn’t involved in the manufacture of that good, whether R&D, customs, transportation – all those internal processes, which are critical to the movement of the global supply chain.”

– Jon Gold, Vice President of Supply Chain and Customs Policy at the National Retail Federation (NRF)

 

The Supply Chain Buzz is Supply Chain Now’s regular Monday livestream, held at 12n ET each week. This show focuses on some of the leading stories from global supply chain and global business, always with special guests – the most important of which is the live audience!

In this livestream, recorded in collaboration with a live audience on February 15th, Jon Gold and Scott Luton engage in real time about:

· The challenges faced by retailers before the pandemic hit, how they have adapted, and what best practices are emerging from new consumer patterns and habits

· The labor and equipment issues that crop up periodically and lead to serious congestion in port cities

· The trade issues that need to be ironed out if retailers are going to remain cost competitive while meeting the socially conscious expectations of consumers
