Real-World Solutions for Addressing Transportation Issues in 2023
November 23, 2022 
Incredible insights can often be gained from seeing what is driving success at other companies that can inspire innovation at your own.
During Greenhouse Grower’s GROW Executive Summit, which takes place next week, Dave Malenfant, CEO of MDM Consulting, will offer an interactive look at several end-to-end supply chain developments, and you can be a critical part of the discussion in this mini-workshop format tackling ideas that are working as well as areas where we can all improve.
“The costs of transportation are at the highest level we’ve seen in years, and we need to figure out how to offset that,” Malenfant says. “Even growers with their own fleets are now dealing with higher fuel costs than they’ve ever had to deal with, and that is on top of higher repair costs.”
Malenfant says moving products through and out of the greenhouse both need to be addressed.
“Route management is one of the first things you should look at, and that includes using technology to determine the best routes,” Malenfant says. “That costs money, but route optimization can ultimately help you reduce costs.”
