Episode notes

Our guest on this week's episode is Alex Saric, chief marketing officer for Ivalua. Many may not be aware, but new SEC-directed climate risk disclosure rules may go into effect soon that could have some significant impacts on supply chains. The proposed rules will require publicly traded companies to report on their climate impacts as well as the impacts of their suppliers and partners further upstream within their supply chains. How is the industry reacting to these potential new requirements?

The United States Postal Service has had it with people and companies mailing packages using counterfeit postage. The service has announced plans to fight back by treating the parcels as abandoned. We explain why this step is taking place and what the implications may be to consumers ordering products online.

The future looks bright for the industrial racking industry. A new report shows growth in racking through 2029, attributed to the constantly expanding warehouse space and the need for racking that works with robotics and automated systems. We look at the numbers and what they mean.
