Importers and exporters aren’t the only ones paying the price of tariffs.
The reverberations from President Trump’s tariff war are being felt throughout global supply chains and trading countries. And the ones being directly affected aren’t just the importers, exporters and consumers who must bear the cost of this ever-changing tax. Also impacted are logistics services, including carriers, warehouses, third-party logistics providers and other entities in the distribution chain. On this episode, we examine the deeper impact of the tariffs on the logistics landscape. Our guest is Tracey Ortiz, director of product management with SPS Commerce, provider of a retail cloud services platform. We cover changing distribution and inventory strategies in the wake of the tariffs, and how technology is helping all supply chain partners to cope in a time of great uncertainty. Hosted by Bob Bowman, Editor-in-Chief of SupplyChainBrain.
