Forget about those rare Black Swans and unexpected supply chain disruptions. In parcel shipping, certain headaches are a constant.
Some of the biggest challenges confronting parcel shippers are also the most predictable — because they never disappear. You could say they come with the territory. On this episode, we’re joined by James Malley, co-founder and chief executive officer of Paccurate, in a discussion of the unloved constants of the business: ever-increasing general rate increases by the big courier companies; the rising cost of packaging materials; the waste caused by boxes that are too big for their contents, resulting in the shipping of air; mandates to become more sustainable and cut carbon emissions, and an endless parade of regulations related to all of the above. Better grab the aspirin. Hosted by Bob Bowman, Editor-in-Chief of SupplyChainBrain.
