A major attraction of FreightWaves’ The Future of Supply Chain live event in Northwest Arkansas on May 9-10 will be the seven-minute live demos. Here’s a preview of one of those demos.
E-commerce has been one of the biggest things to come out of the pandemic-era supply chains. Now more than ever, companies that focus on direct-to-consumer brands are hitting logjams when it comes to scaling, data tracking and operations.
Processing hundreds of small parcel loads to carriers throughout the country quickly becomes a hassle, if not a nightmare, for tracking purposes. Maybe the solution to combine shipping labels, tracking, reporting and technology integration can be found at The Future of Supply Chain event?
