Imports Expected to Top Those at U.S. Ports This Time Last Year
Import cargo volume at the nation's major retail container ports is expected to increase 3.6 percent this month over the same time last year as retailers begin to bring in merchandise for the holiday season, according to the monthly Global Port Tracker report released by the National Retail Federation and Hackett Associates. Imports for the year are expected to be up 4.2 percent over 2014.

Royal Building Products Hires a Dedicated Transportation Partner
The manufacturer and distributor of building materials decided that owning a fleet of trucks wasn't a core competency. It looked to Ryder to close the gap, with a dedicated offering that goes well beyond the booking and movement of freight.
How the Returns Process Can Be a 'Ticking Time Bomb' for Multichannel Retailers
A conversation with Tom Enright, research director of Gartner.
Iran Highly Attractive to Automotive Industry
Iran has traditionally been a high-volume automotive market, whose geographic advantage has endowed it the potential to serve as a production hub in the Middle East. The recent lifting of economic sanctions has burnished the country's reputation as a business hotbed, with the automotive market expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 13.4 per cent from 2014 to 2022. Unsurprisingly, global original equipment manufacturers, suppliers and other market participants are exhibiting unprecedented eagerness to be a part of the Iranian growth story.

For Vizio, A D.C. Bypass Program Yields a Double Win

Pumping Money Into Omnichannel Won't Bring Success if 'Final Mile' Is Neglected
There's a glaring gap in today's omnichannel world. Or perhaps it's best described as a blind spot. In either case, as manufacturers, retailers and 3PLs invest millions of dollars to provide a truly seamless, fully integrated buying experience, many continue to overlook the significant costs and complexities of the "final mile" between DC and the consumer's front porch.
Manufacturers' Battle Against Counterfeit Brands Is Costly, Ongoing Endeavor
The grand golden doors of 500 Pearl Street, in Manhattan, have welcomed such glamorous names as Hermès, Tiffany & Co., and Kering, a French conglomerate whose treasures include Gucci and Bottega Veneta. The building is not a posh hotel or department store. It is the federal court for the Southern District of New York, a favored battleground for the decidedly unglamorous war against counterfeit goods.
Plan Developed to Improve Retail Promotion Planning, Evaluation and Execution
Brick-and-mortar retailers - including supermarkets, discounters, drugstores and mass merchandisers - rely heavily on promotions, which typically account for 10 to 45 percent of their total revenues. Although promotions are a powerful instrument for increasing sales and margin, they are also difficult to use effectively.
In Modern-Day Global Sourcing, Diversity Rules
The dynamics that have long favored China as the world's center of low-cost manufacturing are changing. And no one - not even China - seems to have a problem with that.
