How 5 Top Retailers Are Leveraging Supply Chain Visibility to Improve End-to-End Operations with FourKites

Contributed by FourKites

The first few miles of a supply chain are incredibly complex — though retailers are further down the chain, all the inputs and inbound logistics are crucial to their performance and customer satisfaction. And yet, at best, most retailers have visibility into about 70% of their network of suppliers and transportation partners. As a result, inefficiencies are rampant, disruptions have an outsized impact and employees are left to put out fires, which diminishes morale and increases turnover. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Supply chain professionals will tell you there’s no such thing as perfect, but eliminating what is call the Network Uncertainty Factor can go a long way to keeping shelves stocked and everyone happy.
