Flash back Friday allllll the way back to last week at the Florida Supply Chain Summit ! Key takeways: - The state of Florida may need to invest in infrastructure to attract large manufacturers. Ann Marie Woessner-Collins - Cruise industry is BACK and supporting thousands of local businesses every day including GEMCAP® Trucking, Inc. Maricelis Montiel MIB. Carnival Cruise Line specifically supports over 35,000 vendors. - CH Robinson continues to invest heavily in AI and is now able to quote rates almost instantaneously. Megan Orth - MIA Airport continues to invest in terminal renovations and expansions to the sound of $7 Billion. Emir Pineda - Continually ask "how can I be a better customer?" And "how can I be a better service provider?" to get more reliable and realistic service. (Laura Pullins) - Know your sh**. I.e. how has your on time performance changed throughout the years? What is your accuracy rate? Etc. Brigneti JohnPaul - Our ports made a large shout to industry professionals push their customers to use FL ports over Savannah & other east coast ports. Easier said than done; we'll see who's going to start pushing their clients in this capacity rather than only letting their clients choose ports of entry.

Time well spent at the Florida Supply Chain Summit last week where we heard from outstanding leaders, doers and visionaries about the current and future state of the Supply Chain in Sunshine. I had the pleasure to interact with incredible new friends from all over the board and got the chance to hear from our Cruise panel Eric Lindberg , Maria Nieves , Brigneti JohnPaul and Laura Pullins that was moderated by PortMiami Frederick Wong Jr. Special thanks to Stanley Rigaud , Frank Camp , Eric Olafson , Susel Ferrer , Robert Barceló , Joanne Kazmierski and Jessica Bachansingh for making this panel a reality.

Florida Supply Chain Summit This week, I attended a Supply Chain conference covering major American SCM issues and in particular the state of Florida!! What cames out: 1) Miami Airport is the largest cargo airport in the US with an announcement of the construction of the first 4-story warehouse, which will cover: 1.4 million pica; 2) The aerospace industry (MRO, construction, space, etc.) will represent $1.1 Trillion in revenue in 2030 with 172 major investment projects in progress; 3) The cruise industry has picked up its pace and represents several tens of millions of travelers annually and billions in revenue. The local suppliers and Florida economy greatly benefits from the economic benefits of this industry; 4) The US microchip manufacturing industry is undergoing transformation but China and adjacent countries will still account for more than 75% of market supply in 2030; 5) Hundreds of nearshoring projects are underway and Mexico is in the lead with billions of dollars in investment. Be careful of Chinese companies that position themselves in these markets. Florida suffers in this area for reasons of responsiveness, available land (water and electricity) and political will; 6) Florida's ports industry has identified several major challenges that will influence their growth: geopolitical instability, AI impact, regulation, circular economy, security risks, climate change and local sourcing; 7) A presentation by a VP of Supply from Carnival Cruise Line (1st carrier in this sector) was particularly interesting. Some figures: 90 ships, making 22,000 port stops in more than 800 destinations per year, 160,000 employees from 150 countries transporting more than 12.5 million passengers per year; 8) In closing, the state of Florida is the 15th largest economy in the world (23 million population and a growth of 1000 people per day) if it were a country. It aims to be the tenth largest economy in 2030; In short, two days of presentations, discussions, meetings and sharing of ideas, opinions and experience. Well done to the organizers!!
