Show notes

Gartner’s Top 25 Supply Chain ranking was started 19 years ago to celebrate the best supply chains in the world and to raise awareness about the impact a well-run supply chain can have on the overall health and competitiveness of a business.

Mike Griswold is the Vice President of Research at Gartner, specializing in retail with a particular focus on forecasting and replenishment. He is responsible for Gartner’s annual Top 25 Supply Chain ranking and joins Supply Chain Now on a monthly basis to discuss the latest in retail supply chains from an analyst’s perspective.

In this episode, Mike talks about his 3 key takeaways (plus 2 more) from this year’s top 25 supply chains with co-hosts Scott Luton and Greg White:

• The maturity and sophistication required to build and operate a world class supply chain through third party relationships

• The power of understanding that a ranking like the top 25 is not a goal in and of itself, but rather an outcome

• 2 Notable macro trends: identifying and seizing new opportunities and keeping the employee experience front and center
