How Shippers Are Thinking About Their Supply Chain

Everything is Logistics

On this podcast, we're used to hearing the broker's or the carrier's point of view. But in this episode, we're showcasing a conversation held at the ECC Conference with two shippers, one in restaurant equipment and the other in electrical systems, who share their experience in trying to solve their supply chain challenges since 2020.
The ECC Conference was held in Colorado Springs at the Broadmoor and I was honored to participate in the panel alongside Phil Stephenson of Avail Infrastructure Solutions and Fred Mudge of Powell Electrical Systems.
