Airbnb for Warehousing? – New Business Models, Innovation, ROI Webinar
(PRWEB) February 15, 2015 -- Warehousing is a critical element of any retailer or manufacturer’s supply chain strategy. Specifically, today's cost containment business strategies highlight the importance of warehouse efficiency for manufacturers and retailers. Furthermore, as consumers demand greater product availability and short delivery times, businesses must make their supply chains more responsive while limiting new capital outlays. This results in the daunting task of balancing costs, reach and responsiveness.
This webinar will explore warehousing business models, both traditional and new. Attendees will discover how manufacturers, retailers, warehouse providers and other business segments are using innovative techniques to better utilize, leverage and engage warehouses.
