Keeping an eye on China
February 04, 2012 - LM Editorial
As I recently opined in MarketWatch, logistics and supply chain professionals suspect that Apple Inc.’s operating procedure will undergo significant change in order to recover from its recent public relations disaster.

Rosemary Coates, President of Blue Silk Consulting http://www.bluesilkconsulting.com, a Global Supply Chain consulting firm and the author of: 42 Rules for Sourcing and Manufacturing in China has recently joined our sister publication – SCMR – as a contributing blogger. She will provide readers with transactional intelligence on doing business in China, and how to avoid making the mistakes that investigative journalist love to reveal.
