John Janson is the senior director of global logistics for SanMar. The last year and a half has definitely challenged and tested his team, along with the rest of us, to say the least. In this episode, John delves into how the COVID-19 pandemic has shaken up supply chains all over the world, how SanMar is faring, and what we need to accomplish before we can be “back to normal.” THE FINER DETAILS OF THIS EPISODE John breaks down how SanMar’s global supply chain worked prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. What causes product shortages, and how has the pandemic played into that? Looking into how the Suez Canal blockage affected SanMar and the global supply chain at large. Why it’s important for customers to get their orders into us early. What milestone does the industry need to hit to know it’s turning a corner? QUOTES “We’re not doing anywhere near as well as we’d like to be doing, but we’re doing significantly better than lots of other people are doing.” “If you grade us on a curve we’re not doing bad!” “We’re trying to make ourselves as attractive to a customer as we can be.” “We are professional whack-a-mole players right now.” LINKS SanMar U: http://www.education.sanmar.com/ SanMar’s Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sanmarcorp/ SanMar’s Twitter: @sanmar_corp SanMar’s Instagram: @sanmar_corp
