Winning the Logistics Battle Against the E-Titans

Today, it’s tough to find a story on our pages that isn’t somehow influenced by the growth of e-commerce—a fact that I find truly remarkable. It’s a phenomenon that has not only fundamentally altered retail logistics operations, but has ushered in similar demands between suppliers and trading partners across manufacturing and B2B industries.

The challenges for all shippers are mounting at every stage of the supply chain. Your operations are faced with the complexities of adopting a strategy addressing a myriad of distribution network solutions in an effort to meet increasing demand to rising cost of warehouse space, re-inventing carrier relationships, applying software tools designed and monitoring a non-stop flow of goods.

With this in mind, the editors of Logistics Management have pulled together this collection of feature stories to help shippers better understand some of the more prevalent challenges ushered in by the “e-com effect” and some of the solutions brands are finding to help them keep pace with today’s pressing demands.
