Companies can enjoy a number of benefits by sourcing components or materials globally. Global sourcing can help lower costs, provide access to a larger pool of resources, and generate faster turnaround times. But the risks of a global supply chain are real and managers must understand these risks as part of a successful global strategy. Whether your company sources from a single foreign supplier or relies on a large global supplier network, supply chain disruptions can increase your costs and interrupt your ability to meet customer demand. Join the Madison International Trade Association (MITA) to learn about the vulnerabilities in your global sourcing strategy and discover how you can mitigate these risks!
