With the recent political unrest in Egypt, Proctor and Gamble has decided to close facilities. Although undamaged, two plants and an office have been shut down, while P&G has asked employees to work from home for the time being.
PITTSBURGH – Armada Supply Chain Solutions today announced that Mike Jones, senior vice president of national accounts, has been recognized as one of the supply chain industry’s leading “Pros to Know” in the 2011 listing of top supply chain professionals compiled by Supply & Demand Chain Executive magazine.
PepsiCo is among those businesses benefiting from sustainable procurement, with the US beverage giant uncovering more than $60 million in energy savings opportunities.
It should come as no surprise that the companies that appear in the Top 25 Supply Chains are also the ones that make up a good chunk of the Fortune 500. While fairly obvious, this correlation shows that the most profitable companies in the world wouldn’t have made it to where they are today without a strong network of supply chains to support their ventures.
The third-party logistics company will operate PepsiCo’s new 450,000 square foot distribution center in Tacoma, WA.
In a bid to consolidate its supply chain, the beverages company recognized that it needed to expand its network by opening a distribution center in the Pacific Northwest.
