Manage episode 463815960 series 3471051
Observations from a trip to India, contrasting the logistics systems there with those in North America.
The heavy reliance on physical "phone books" to find carriers in India despite the country's tech-savviness contrasts this with the efficiency of North American logistics despite its challenges.
Then, we highlighted India's low truck utilization rates due to long wait times between loads, a stark difference from the higher efficiency in North America.
This discussion also touched on the fragmentation of the Indian freight market and the language barriers that contribute to inefficiencies from one side to the other!
