The other day at the grocery store, my 10-year-old son asked me a simple question, “Dad, why are the shelves empty?” He’d noticed some of his favorite snacks missing, and it struck him as strange.

As the urgency to combat climate change intensifies, the European Union is taking bold steps to create a more sustainable future. One of the most significant initiatives for this is a broader commitment by the EU to achieve climate neutrality by 2050 known as the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism, or CBAM, which will have far-reaching implications for companies importing goods into the EU.

Thousands of dockworkers along the East and Gulf coasts began a historic strike just after midnight on October 1, 2024. This work stoppage, the first of its kind since 1977, has brought operations to a grinding halt at 14 major ports from Texas to New England, threatening to disrupt the flow of more than half of the nation’s containerized trade. Unlike the major strike in the 70’s, our reliance on the global economy and supply chains is now much greater, so the shutdown is expected to have a wide and immediate impact, from the shortage of everyday items to increased shipping costs, retail prices, and the global transportation infrastructure.

The recent rate cut by the Federal Reserve - the first since the pandemic began in 2020 - lowered borrowing costs by half a percentage point and marks a significant shift in monetary policy.

With so many high-value products shipped around the United States every day, it’s no surprise criminals target freight. Despite the logistics industry’s efforts to improve security, thieves still manage to steal everything from food, electronics, household goods, and valuable metals (such as copper.) What’s more, thieves are always looking for ways to evolve their methods and create new schemes. Here are three of the most common ways freight gets stolen:
Like a Formula 1 race car, supply chain trends move at breakneck speed. Every week, it seems like there are new regulations, geopolitical crises, climate events, or sanctions zooming by that keep you on the edge of your seat. If you blink, you’ll miss it and be left in the dust. Which is why it pays to keep up with supply chain and global trade events and understand how they can impact your business.
The term “Golden Quarter” refers to the final three months of the year, between October and December, and is a critical period for retailers due to the major back-to-back shopping events like Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and the holiday season. This peak buying season typically sees a surge in consumer spending, making it vital for retailers and logistics providers to do what they can months ahead of time to prepare to maximize profits. However, this surge in demand presents a significant challenge for transportation and logistics providers, who must manage increased volumes, tight delivery deadlines, and heightened customer expectations.
