How Hurricanes Impact Ports and Supply Chains - OceanWaves

The fight for a slice of the Transportation Bill pie is as fierce as a Florentine gladiator match. The argument for an efficient transportation system is not new. But it’s more than roads and bridges. Ports need to take a priority. These locations are the points of origin processing over 90-percent of the world’s trade. The ports are the funnel in the flow of trade. It makes sense to make sure this funnel has no cracks so trade can flow smoothly through the entire pipeline of trade. But if you want to wait for the federal government to be the savior of transportation you are going to be waiting for a long, long, time. To get something done sooner rather than later, nothing is better than a public, private partnership. It’s the best of both worlds. Jack Hedge - Executive Director, Utah Inland Port Authority, Salt Lake City, UT Andrew Scott - CEO, QuayChain, Los Angleles, CALori-Ann LaRocco - Writer, Freightwaves - West Milford, NJFollow FreightWaves on Apple PodcastsFollow FreightWaves on SpotifyMore FreightWaves Podcasts

Port Perspective on Managing Import Surge - OceanWaves

Fuel – and its constantly gyrating price movements – is one of the three biggest costs for carriers, and it obviously also impacts what shippers pay. But, many buyers of fuel are completely unaware of what causes price fluctuations – for anyone that buys millions of gallons / year of fuel, that’s a detriment. Understanding seven basic rules of fuel buying can go a long way toward being able to become a smarter buyer of fuel, and add to bottom line profits. For the afternoon, your host will be Scott Berhang – a 40 year veteran of the fuel industry who put hundreds of fuel buyers through his fuel buying classes.
