August 2018 Distribution: A Vision for Chicago-land
We talk about it all the time; transportation, distribution, warehousing, logistics and the ultimate supply chain, but know that none of it makes any sense until we deliver on the distribution part. Distribution is the necessary tactic that makes the supply chain work. Supply chain leaders, transportation carriers, warehousemen and logistics professionals will gather to learn just what makes distribution the key link in the supply chain. Know too that if your team doesn't win, your supply chain will rust. We only get paid when we deliver what the customer wants (pick), when the customer wants (time sensitive), where the customer wants (the right place), and at the price that they are willing to pay.
Did you know that Will County is the largest and fastest growing county in the country in new business development? More freight moves in and out of Will County than any other county in the country. Join us for this spectacular event and meet Will County’s Economic Business Development leadership team and learn how transportation has played such a vital role in our backyard of Will County.
Join leaders in logistics and strategy of the supply chain as they collaborate, connect, join forces, discuss, deliberate and talk about the values that distribution plays as it differentiates from among the players in the supply chain process. All this takes place at the Traffic Club of Chicago's Executive Briefing on September 27th at the offices of Cadence Premier Logistics (2250 S Chicago Avenue, Joliet IL 60436) located right in the heart of Will County. Save the date and plan to be there for lunch which will be served on the indoor soccer field at the distribution facilities of Cadence.
Bring a friend and please enter through the Soccer Field entrance, far right side door. Grow personally and professionally and enjoy the hospitality of our host. Come a little early and stay a little late. Use the network value that the Traffic Club of Chicago offers to its members and friends of the club.
