Supply chain optimization has never been more critical in today’s wholesale distribution market. A stunning 83% of businesses are now focused on creating customer-centric supply chains to improve service and offer flexible delivery options. In fact, the market is set to skyrocket almost $50 billion over the next eight years.

This week, Kevin and Tom are joined by James Gilman, President of Perimeter Office Products, who gives his unique insight to the state of supply chain management and what can be done to improve it. We also take a look at how companies are using AI to improve efficiencies in their supply chain - and how to overcome the hurdles that come with it.

We take a look at a few possible scenarios, and what the implications are of a large cut versus a small one.
