World Class Distribution: Back to the Basics

April 25, 2013

Transportation, warehousing, and inventory management have always been the basics of efficient and effective distribution.  Today, however, many companies are stretching what they are offering customers and have forgotten that executing the basics is the formula for success.  To be considered world class, companies must refocus their efforts on executing the basics flawlessly for every transaction.  The 2013 Waters Symposium will highlight companies that have implemented exceptional programs to create a world class distribution network.

The 23rd Annual R. Hadly Waters Supply Chain Symposium will highlight industry leaders that have implemented exceptional programs to create a world class distribution network.  Join us on April 25, 2013, at the Penn Stater Conference Center and Hotel, University Park, Pennsylvania.
