Inside McCormick’s Bold Supply Chain Strategy

In this episode of Supply Chain Now, Scott Luton reflects on the recent Schneider Electric Innovation Summit North America 2025 in Las Vegas, where 2,500+ leaders gathered to tackle skyrocketing energy demand, AI-driven power consumption, and the urgent need to modernize our grid.

In this episode of Supply Chain Now, hosts Scott Luton and Tevon Taylor sit down with Will Quinn, supply chain consultant at CAMM Consulting and better known as The Distribution Guy® to unpack the evolving world of warehousing and distribution. With a rich background spanning military logistics, Coca-Cola operations, and enterprise tech systems, Will offers a grounded yet forward-looking view of how distribution excellence is built from the floor up. Together, they explore why the biggest risk in distribution is doing nothing, how to use AI to document standard operating procedures, and what the dirtiest ceiling fan in the building might say about a warehouse’s performance. Will also shares why digital transformation should support—not drive—your business strategy and why automation won’t replace people, but poorly managed change might. The discussion also touches on tariff-induced uncertainty, rising labor costs, cybersecurity vulnerabilities, and the rising importance of nearshoring. Will and Tevon share leadership insights that emphasize culture, consistency, and communication—and leave us with a simple but powerful reminder: success starts with taking care of your people.   This episode is hosted by Scott Luton and Tevon Taylor, and produced by Trisha Cordes, Joshua Miranda, and Amanda Luton.   Additional Links & Resources…
