Note from the editor
I am very excited to welcome you to the initial issue of Supply Chain Dive, the latest publication from Industry Dive.
Whether you're focused on procurement, fulfillment or inventory management — we're here to deliver the latest supply chain news and trends to help optimize your processes.
Raised in a manufacturing town, I witnessed the incredible efforts involved in mitigating supply disruptions, but few of those stories ever reached publications. At Supply Chain Dive, we believe your stories, your challenges and advice can help managers better perform their duties and lead to more informed decision making.
If you want to offer your thoughts, I'm always available via Twitter or e-mail. We hope you enjoy the newsletter and that you'll point your colleagues to sign up as well.
Sincerely,
Edwin Lopez
Associate Editor, Supply Chain Dive
