Today’s podcast is focused on the process of selecting the right industrial site, transload locations and warehouses to optimize the supply chain. On the flip side, what is the best way for owners of industrial sites, ports, transloads and warehouses to market their facilities to users who understand the importance of robust transportation questions?
The decisions that executives make on sites have a long lasting impact on cost, speed and consistency of their companies’ supply chains.
