Same-day Delivery Grows - Just in Time for the Holidays

Settlement Reached in Case Involving Toxin Found in Chinese-Made Hand Tools
The Chanler Group, an environmental law firm, reached a settlement on behalf of its client with a Chinese manufacturer of products alleged to contain a reproductive toxin, commonly known as DEHP. This is reportedly the first time that California's Proposition 65, or any American consumer protection statute, has been used as a basis for international prosecution. The Chanler Group and its clients expect this to be the beginning of a new trend, where overseas manufacturers are held accountable for the products they provide for American consumers.

Achieving Sustainability: From Waste Management to Light Bulbs
Sustainability can involve a global effort to calculate carbon emissions across the entire supply chain. Or it can mean the changing of a few light bulbs.
Ethnographic Studies Lead to New-Product Successes
Many a company has a "customer first" approach, and improvement methodologies such as Lean and Six Sigma start with the "voice of the customer". So what is the point in trying to solve modern-day business problems with ethnography methods that many people still exclusively associate with anthropology?
Amazon's On-site Presence in Clients' Warehouses Reportedly Upsets Some Retailers
Recently, its rivals were reportedly upset after details of Amazon's warehouse arrangement with Procter & Gamble and other major suppliers were revealed.
Government Shutdown Didn't Help Already Glum Predictions for Holiday Season Spending
Retail sales were lagging long before the government shutdown, but the hit that the economy took from the closure didn't help things at all.
