Logistics is experiencing a stellar moment. And no, we’re not exaggerating. If you work in the industry, you’ve already noticed.
Digitalization and automation are revolutionizing the way we move products around. In the past, tracking a package was an odyssey. Today, with a couple of clicks we know in real time where our order is down to the last mile.
How have we come to this change? The answer is simple: customers demand more and better. And we, as logistics professionals, must offer it to them.
What are the trends that are setting the pace?
Get ready for a very near future where:
Everything is connected. From your warehouse to the delivery truck to the last package.
IoT and Big Data allow us to have a 360° view of our supply chain. Thanks to them, we can predict problems before they occur and optimize each route.
And routes are getting easier and easier to optimize. Train an AI to handle heavy tasks such as route planning and inventory management and focus on what really matters: making strategic decisions.
Sustainability is a must. Don’t forget.
Consumers are increasingly aware of the environmental impact of any activity and demand sustainable products and services. Logistics is no exception. Reducing the carbon footprint and optimizing resources is a challenge we must take on.
The last mile is the new battle. With the rise of e-commerce, home delivery of packages is more important than ever. Logistics will focus on proximity. We reduce dependence on distant suppliers and prioritize proximity. Why? Because of adaptation.
The geographical location of Dársena21 allows us to provide quick responses for a large part of the central peninsular. Located in Guadalajara, 30 minutes from the center of Madrid, we offer visitors to Logistics our logistics floor of more than 40,000 m2.
