In this two part interview we spoke with the Supply Chain Technology company whisperer, Greg Cronin, about his long and successful career in supply chain management and what the future holds.
It also just happens he and John Hill, who we recently interviewed on Supply Chain is Boring are considered the fathers of the warehouse management system industry and you get the indication the competitive embers are still alive.
In part 1 Greg discusses how he got into supply chain management up through his multiple attempts at retirement. Be sure to listen through the end to hear bonus coverage to get a better understanding of Greg Cronin. It all sounds pretty boring. So let’s see if Greg can prove me wrong.

El Tesoro escondido de tu Basura
En este episodio de Supply Chain Now en Español, Sofía Rivas conversa con Margie Bazán, especialista en sostenibilidad y representante de BG Metal Trade, sobre un tema que todos tenemos literalmente en casa; la basura electrónica. Desde los celulares viejos que guardamos “por si acaso” hasta las laptops olvidadas del home office, Margie nos muestra que dentro de todo eso hay tesoros escondidos. El episodio nos sumerge en el fascinante mundo de la minería urbana, donde los metales preciosos se rescatan de aparatos en desuso para darles una segunda (o tercera) vida. Margie comparte cómo funciona este proceso, los retos en Latinoamérica y por qué Asia lleva la delantera. Además, nos deja una gran reflexión: el reciclaje no es solo un acto ambiental, sino una oportunidad para repensar la cadena de suministro y hacerla más circular.
