WITHOUT LOGISTICS: RETAIL EDITION
In retail, every delivery is a promise. This report explores the risks, decisions and opportunities shaping how logistics is defining customer trust, brand performance and competitive advantage.
WHEN LOGISTICS WORKS, THE WORLD WORKS
The retail landscape has shifted from seasonal peaks to constant pressure. As supply chains stretch thin and volatility becomes the norm, retailers are adapting fast.
Without Logistics: Retail Edition explores how logistics has moved to the front line of brand experience, and how leaders are responding to protect margins, promises and loyalty.
THE RISK BEHIND EVERY DELIVERY
Each year, retail supply chains face more than 18,000 disruptions, with potential losses topping $7.5 billion and average incident costs exceeding $400,000.
Every delay risks more than lost revenue. It can mean missed launches, empty shelves and disappointed customers. That is why retailers are putting logistics at the heart of customer delivery and building resilience that protects more than products.
