If you missed the news last week all 166 memeber countries of the World Customs Organization agreed to ratify a new Framework for global supply chain secuity. When was the last time 166 countries agreed on anything? Now the tough work begins. The implementation. Stay tuned.
Here are a few articles on the news:
Financial Times
New York Times
Whenever I tell a friend, colleague or family member about my job as soon as the words "supply chain" are muttered I immediately see glassy eyes followed by a yawn or two. Little do they realize that every time they discard or recycle a carton of milk they are completing the end of the supply chain cycle. Without supply chains consumers would be stuck using products that they had to make or grow with their own two hands. Still not excited, well visit often and eventually you will be.
