The 2018 holiday shopping season has evolved beyond the traditional shopping days. First, there was Black Friday. Then, Thanksgiving became Brown Thursday. Small-business Saturday arose, and Cyber Monday took hold. Green Monday came about several years ago when companies started looking to tap into December shopping habits for the second Monday of the month.

Shippers had plenty of last-minute freight to deliver before Christmas, and that stopped the slow slide we had been seeing in reefer freight. The demand for fresh food before the holiday pushed volumes up 7% last week, which boosted rates on most of the high-traffic reefer lanes. Those increases could be short-lived , though. Now that the urgency surrounding the holiday is gone, capacity will likely loosen as major produce-growing regions are braced for winter.

A year ago, the spot market was a much more volatile place. Demand was soaring for retail freight, and the ELD mandate that had just taken effect led to a major capacity crunch. Amid all that uncertainly, shipping rates skyrocketed, and it got even crazier in the month to follow. That's worth mentioning because this has felt like a down December. Rates spiked early in the month, but load counts have been in a slow decline ever since.

The holiday season has been associated with weird presents since gift-giving became an annual tradition. You know what I’m talking about: Those plaid socks from Uncle Seamus; the sweater with mismatched sleeve-lengths from Aunt Gertrude; and ties and scarves adorned with kittens or unicorns from your adorable children. Your first thought might be: “Bless the gift-giver!

Whether from geopolitical tensions or the havoc caused by the pandemic and its aftershocks, plenty of challenges remain. Despite this, leaders are seeing a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel — inflation is decreasing, interest rates are leveling off and supply chain volatility is easing.

A new piece of plant equipment will always trump a new ERP system to grow your business – or will it? In all my many years of introducing new ERP systems to manufacturing companies, the number one reason why the project did not go ahead is not because we lost out to a competitor’s product. It is almost always because the investment required lost out to other investment opportunities that the manufacturer could pursue.
