Vendor Relations“Supply chains have become increasingly interdependent
because of their reliance on lean practices and just-in-time delivery systems. At the same time, in doing that we’re more
exposed than we’ve ever been to disruptions. And climate change has made things more volatile than ever.”

Logistics Association Canada (SCL)
