Back to EpisodesGuest: Brian Thompson of SMC³ on the LTL market; Capacity remains tight; CSCMP EDGE goes virtual
Description
In this episode, guest Brian Thompson, the chief commercial officer at SMC³, discusses what the transportation markets may look like through the end of the year, and in particular how the Covid-19 pandemic has affected the LTL (less-than-truckload) segment.
Capacity for both trucking and air freight remains very tight as we navigate the pandemic. How long will it be before we see more capacity entering the market for shippers?
And CSCMP EDGE is going virtual this year. Diane Rand, managing editor of CSCMP's Supply Chain Quarterly, joins us to talk about this year's conference and how you can navigate your way in the virtual environment.
