In Part 1, Mike King and guests explore freight technology take-up and the latest M&A activity. They also ask if we are now seeing the normalisation of freight rates, and if the scaling back of ocean and air ambitions by some integrators and carriers are the sign of things to come.
Are you trying to decarbonise your supply chain without partnering with stakeholders. If so, in Part 2 of this podcast you’ll hear why you should think again.
