April 28, 2023 | Today’s news and insights for supply chain leaders NOTE FROM THE EDITOR Let's face it, the state of supply chains hasn't been the same since 2020. When seeing out-of-stock items at the grocery became the new normal, suddenly the term “supply chain” was on everyone’s lips. Not to mention that for once, people actually understood what a supply chain even was. Although congestion has eased, we shouldn't forget the lessons of the pandemic: Supply chains affect everyone in the world.

Tomorrow, April 29, is National Supply Chain Day — yes, it exists. Be sure to recognize the hard work supply chain professionals do every day to ensure goods keep moving.
