Description

It's no secret that the entire logistics industry has seen its share of peaks and valleys--and now we have the data to prove it.

In this special episode with CartonCloud COO Shaun Hagen, we're checking the pulse of this industry using their 2023 Logistics Index report that surveys 2,000 employees working in freight. Using these responses, we can get a better pulse-check around burning issues like environmental sustainability, staffing, and other stats, such as the alarmingly high number of companies still relying on paper processes.

Brace yourselves as the conversation escalates into the realm of AI and robotics, exploring their impact on the industry and the challenges SMEs face when budgeting for these technologies.
