Paper abstract bibtex #ItsTheEndOfTheWeek and in this episode, hosts Germán and Jorge dive deep into the intricacies of supply chain networks across North America. With a focus on Canada, the United States, and Mexico, Germán and Jorge explore the unique geographical and infrastructural challenges these countries face and how they influence the design of supply chain networks. 1️⃣ Geography Matters: The geography of North America plays a pivotal role in determining the supply chain strategies employed by businesses. Whether it's the vast expanse of Canada, the diverse terrains of the United States, or the rugged landscapes of Mexico, geography influences many aspects of a supply chain network. 2️⃣ The Balancing Act Between Canada and the United States: Due to extensive road networks and relatively flat terrain between the countries, Canada and the United States can often manage supply chain logistics with one or two strategically located centers, efficiently serving a vast majority of the population. However, with the United States having a larger population spread across the east and west, some businesses opt for two, three, or even four distribution centers to balance transportation costs and maintain service levels. 3️⃣ Mexico's Need for Many Distribution Centers: Given the rugged nature of Mexico's geography, companies frequently require numerous distribution centers in their supply chain network to ensure timely product delivery while keeping transportation costs in check. Moreover, Mexico's labor cost advantage allows for the establishment of many smaller distribution centers where third party logistics companies play a pivotal role in warehouse management and last-mile delivery.
