We were re-platforming their current e-commerce solution and building an entirely new e-commerce business for another channel. Throughout that project, I was exposed to the fascinating world of supply chain and logistics. With the e-commerce boom, I knew this industry was a hot one and I wanted in! MHI has a long history (75-year anniversary coming up) and a great culture. Everyone I met during the interview process shared many core values with my own and seemed to truly appreciate what I would bring to the table. I knew MHI would be a great fit for me.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mhisolutions-digital.com\/mhiq\/0120_volume_8__issue_1\/MobilePagedArticle.action?articleId=1545799#articleId1545799\"><em><strong>Read more&#8230;<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The people who work at MHI are the gears that keep the association rolling.
