China is one of the many countries that benefit from global trade, yet numerous barriers prevent the flow of goods from expanding as fast as it could. These impediments affect many industries – including aviation, automotive, agriculture and fast-moving consumer goods – as well as the ability of entire economies to develop.
Join Tom Gorman, CEO of supply-chain logistics leader Brambles, to understand how addressing these bottlenecks can improve efficiency and reduce the cost of supply chains. Mr. Gorman will discuss China's leadership in building its supply chain infrastructure, as well as explore innovative approaches that can help your company build a sustainable platform for its global operations.
