About Globalization Is Inevitable
When we renamed our company Global Supply Chain Group in 2006, the key thought running in my mind was that despite clear and evident trend of globalisation – most companies still ran their supply chain on a regional basis.

That is why I am expecting this blog post is likely to be somewhat controversial in some quarters. However, those same protesters do not think twice before enjoying the fruits of globalisation – coffee from Columbia or cotton grown in Egypt.
