  • Summary

  • The massive dock strike on the eastern seaboard dominated the news this week as it threatened to literally upend the United States economy. But just as quickly as it sent shockwaves through the world of wholesale distribution and manufacturing, it came to an abrupt end.

    Or did it?

    The strike is suddenly "on pause" as dockworkers return to their jobs with a tentative agreement on wages, diverting a potential economic disaster, but leaving the future uncertain. This week, we're joined by Scott Costa, publisher at tED magazine, to take an in-depth look at how the east coast dock strike—or lack thereof—effects not only the business of wholesale manufacturing and distribution, but the supply chain as a whole. In the wake of Covid, supply chain risk has become severe, systemic, and strategic. Can it survive a blow of this magnitude?
