At CSCMP’s EDGE Conference last week, Rob Doyle, President and Robin Siekerman, VP of Marketing and Customer Solutions of The Shippers Group co-chaired the Warehousing Track which included a session on Industrial Real Estate: Trends and Insights for The Supply Chain. In an interactive session with the audience, real estate professionals led the discussion on various topics highlighting the current state of industrial real estate.
The most powerful community in Supply Chain came together in-person at CSCMP’s annual EDGE Conference this year in Atlanta, after the necessity to hold last year’s conference fully virtual due to the global pandemic. CSCMP once again delivered an impressive line-up of educational sessions and networking events during the conference in a safety-conscious environment, while also offering a virtual option for attendance.
