Selecting the Best Logistics Partners in Global Trade

Choosing the right logistics partners in global trade is not a one size fits all answer. With so many providers to choose from, what should companies that engage in international trade be looking for in determining the right partners for their business? International trade has many complexities, but the right partner can help companies navigate through the tangled web of international regulations, ever changing tariffs/trade wars, routing and rates for freight. In this webinar, strategies for achieving both the least total cost in international logistics as well as the best service will be discussed.
