Our guest on this week's episode is Mark Ford, chief capacity officer at BlueGrace Logistics. As the trucking industry continues to ride out the uncertain economy, it puts pressures on small fleet carriers to steer carefully to adjust to the volatility. He discusses the current status of the trucking sector and the effects on small fleets and owner operators. What steps can they take to assure that they survive?
Google has recently made some significant investments in logistics on the continent of Africa. It's designed to help promote the industry in Africa and encourage greater investments in overall infrastructure. Find out what the global tech giant hopes to accomplish.
Other large investments are going into companies that help trucking companies deal with the financial side of the business. Such new tech can help speed up business processes and assure more timely payments. We discuss what firms are getting large investment funding and what services they provide to the industry.
