Too often, logistics is treated like a common business utility when it has one of the most important functions: getting products to people. Nothing matters more than how your customers receive — and how they choose to receive — the products they purchase.
LxL will be a weekly newsletter with stories, inspiration, and best practices for turning logistics operations into sources of greater customer loyalty. It will also aim to get non-logistics professionals excited in logistics.
Here are the initial newsletters you’ll receive when you subscribe:
