Represented industries included retail, wholesale, consumer packaged goods, automotive, consulting, life sciences, healthcare, transportation, warehousing, material handling, supply chain equipment and related services.<\/p>\n<p>From a big-picture perspective, the Annual Industry Report offers tremendous insight into the topics that are actually keeping supply chain managers awake at night, said Bryan Carey, president of Starrco Company and member of MHI\u2019s Board of Governors. Carey also serves as the committee chair of MHI\u2019s Branding Work Group, an external leadership team advising us about how to best serve the needs of members as we work to connect them with the end-user community.<\/p>\n<p><em>By Jeff Woroniecki, MHI Chief Operating Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nxtbook.com\/naylor\/MHIQ\/MHIQ0414\/index.php#\/38\"><strong><em>Click here to read the full article.<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back in March, at MODEX 2014, we released the MHI Annual Industry Report: Innovations That Drive Supply Chains.
