Here’s a special sneak preview of some of the stories you will find this week on the Bahrns blog:
- Black Friday may have been a bust for some retailers, according to industry observers. But that doesn’t mean overall holiday shopping will be down. We’ll explain why.
- The good news is that the US economy is heating up. The bad news for some manufacturers and warehouse owners is that an improved economy could mean higher equipment prices. We’ll tell you what that could mean for you.
- Have you heard of “dim pricing” yet? It’s the new way carriers like UPS and FedEx will calculate shipping costs starting later this month and it could lead to a rate increase of up to 30%. We’ll tell you about a way some companies are preparing.
All that plus what why a Michigan company is sending robots to France, why the mayor of Chicago was in a pallet yard, and why the Norfolk Southern railroad is about to get a whole lot bigger. All this and much, much more can be found this week on the Bahrns blog … so stay tuned!
