Overview
Order “Managing Forwarders, Brokers & Carriers” today for a thorough trade resource.

“Supply chains are becoming increasingly essential across industries and sectors, as businesses become more globalized and manufacturing facilities and customer bases are more spread out across the world. Technological advances have also led to greater cost efficiencies and reduced transport time, but many challenges and risks remain to be resolved if firms are to meet the needs of their customers for ever-increasing speed and flexibility.”
