Earlier this year Walmart announced projected cost
savings of 5 - 15% by product category with an expanded direct import program.
While retailers, consumer goods companies and most global manufacturers have
been importing for years, there is renewed interest in understanding all of the
elements of a direct import program and the opportunity areas that can drive new
supply chain efficiencies and boost product profitability.
This pre- recorded webinar will take a look at the foundation technologies for a
direct import program, explore the implementation options by working with a
global logistics provider, and discuss a number of successful case studies.
During this webinar, you will hear from a panel of industry experts to better
