State of the Wholesale Supply Chain
Industry in 2020
The wholesale supply chain industry continues to
look for ways to solve challenges around predicting shifting
consumer preferences, volatility with suppliers and long lead
times, and e-commerce growth that's increasing price transparency.
Despite these obstacles, the industry collectively posted
year-over-year sales growth of 8% in 2019, similar to the prior
year.
For the third straight year, Blue Ridge asked wholesale supply
industry leaders about their challenges, how they're thinking about
solving them and how they're dealing with the pace of technological
change. One key finding for the 2020 survey is the increasing
adoption of new technologies, such as AI and machine learning, as a
strategy to combat supply chain disruption.
