4PL Solutions for Today’s Supply Chain — A Conversation with Jordan Kass of C.H. Robinson | TMC

At the most recent edition of the North American Supply Chain Executive Summit series we sat down with Jordan Kass, the president of TMC, a division of C.H. Robinson, to talk about how supply chain executives are rethinking their logistics in the post-pandemic business landscape of frequent disruption, and how 4PLs are contributing to that ongoing conversation.

Give it a listen!
