Event overview
China has a relatively high logistics-cost-to-GDP ratio, an increasingly significant factor in the current economic climate. A lean logistics operation is indispensable in eliminating non-value-adding operations, equipment and resources, and for improving safety, quality, on-time delivery and cost savings.
China Economic Review has invited leading logistics experts to talk about solutions for longer, leaner and more lucrative operations from the unique perspective of mainland China. This full-day interactive and case study-oriented conference will provide valuable knowledge and practical advice on how to make the most of lean logistics approaches in your supply chain.
