Supply chain priorities in the spotlight

Today’s manufacturers, distributors and retailers are focused on reducing costs across the supply chain and growing their businesses. At the same time, they are grappling with growing environmental/sustainability concerns, rising transportation prices and worries about supplier reliability.

In order to better understand these supply chain concerns and what today’s manufacturers, distributors, and retailers are doing about them, Grant Thornton’s Consumer and Industrial Products practice recently partnered with World Trade Magazine to produce “Supply chain priorities in the spotlight.” This new survey, the third in Grant Thornton’s Supply Chain Solutions series, answers the following questions:

• What are the top priorities of supply chain managers?
• What are companies doing to “green” their supply chains?
• What are the key concerns of companies when selecting transportation and logistics providers?
• What changes are in store for modes of transportation in the next year?
