Check out SUPPLY CHAINS, our new publication for trends and ideas in #logistics, #supplychain, and #technology!

Meet @ShipStation Global, a multi-billion-dollar company resulting from the merger and rebranding of @Auctane and @WWEXGroup. And kudos to Tom Madine, the CEO of the combined business. The merger combines two things: WWEX Group’s freight brokerage and Auctane’s AI-powered shipping software. This is a bold move! Rooting for their success. businesswire.com/news/home/2…

The battlefield for last-mile logistics continues to intensify. @ultabeauty just announced they are adding more than 1,500 stores to the @UberEats platform. This is significant because it highlights @Uber's plans to expand beyond restaurants for last-mile delivery, including Ulta's fragrance, makeup, skin care, styling tools and hair care products. Last mile remains exceptionally fragmented. Will Uber, @Lyft, or another strategic company seek to consolidate it? supplychaindive.com/news/ult…

The Logistics Managers' Index is soaring. April reflected the fastest level of expansion since March 2022. Expect a year of supply chain growth and volatility! the-lmi.com/april-2026-logis…

Good news for electric trucks in California! Particularly relevant for companies like Nevoya, @einrideofficial and @Tesla, as well as Fortune 500 companies that want to reduce their carbon footprint. freightwaves.com/news/new-po…

Sign of the times! @BMO is divesting 80% of its transportation lending group to @Stonepeak. To my many smart freight friends: how would you interpret this? Shedding volatility, selling at the bottom, transitioning to a partner better suited to the freight cycle, or something else? freightwaves.com/news/bmos-t…

AI is changing supply chain fast, but where is the real value actually being created?

In just the last few minutes, much has already been said about the Supreme Court 9-0 ruling against CH Robinson and truck brokers, in the case of Montgomery vs. Caribe Transport II. There is no doubt that this verdict will create massive disruption in the transportation industry. Yet amidst major change, we will see enormous opportunity. Who do you think are the best software providers for providing carrier safety, compliance, and vetting analytics? Options include Fleetworthy, Lytx, Motive, Samsara, SafetyCulture, Highway, Idelic (now Descartes) and many others. And what do you think would make these solutions better? freightwaves.com/news/breaki…

Congrats to @USPS on hiring Matthew Connelly as Chief Strategy Officer. I've known Matt for several years. He is a high-integrity leader who not only played a senior leadership role at @UPS, but also built Good360 into the global leader in project philanthropy and purposeful giving via sourcing and supply chain capabilities. Great move for all! freightwaves.com/news/postal…

That said, I think the market is overreacting. Should $CHRW really be down 14%? And similar market shocks hammering GXO, XPO and others? Seems like last month's Karaoke machine flash crash.

Introducing @Amazon Supply Chain Services! Think of this as the largest startup in the history of supply chain. Amazon has spent two decades building the world's largest third party logistics provider, generating $172 billion in 2025. For comparison, this is nearly 5 times bigger than the second-largest 3PL, DSV. And ten years ago, Amazon logistics wasn't even in the top 10. What's new is the rollout. Until now, Amazon used its transportation infrastructure for its own retail operations and marketplace sellers. Now, with ASCS, Amazon is rolling out its internal solutions for external customers. Early adopters include Procter & Gamble, 3M, Lands'​ End, and American Eagle Outfitters Inc. What will the ripple effects be for freight forwarders, parcel delivery, and other providers? wsj.com/logistics-report/ama…

Scary outcome and implication for transportation companies

What's new, and what's working, in AI for last mile? Enjoyed this discussion with @bringg! bringg.com/resources/podcast…

Trump on filing for tariff refunds: “If they don’t do that, I’ll remember them." If you are a major US company, should you refrain from filing? And if you don't file, will you find yourself at risk of shareholder lawsuits? Now is a good time to turn to your trusted logistics partners! cnbc.com/2026/04/21/trump-sa…

Reverse logistics is hotter than ever. Returns is an $850B market. And now @Uber is entering the market. As a consumer, you can go into the app, select “return an item,” provide a reason for your return, and choose “return with a courier.” They are partnering with retailers like Best Buy, DICK'S Sporting Goods, PACSUN and Petco. And this is just the beginning. Every major brand, retailer and logistics company should have a reverse logistics strategy. At @CambCapital we chose @ReverseLogix because of their end-to-end returns management capability to power warehouses, workflow, and labor processes. What's your returns plan? retaildive.com/news/uber-eat…

Congrats to Metro Supply Chain on their sale to NX GROUP. NX paid close to $1.3B (USD) to gain an extensive warehouse-based supply chain network focused on Canada and the US. Expect to see more cross border M&A in 2026! container-news.com/nippon-ex…

AI in supply chain continues to grow in importance. The latest proof point is Loop's $95M capital raise. In the meantime, Pallet, Augment, HappyRobot and others continue to scale up. Smart supply chain companies should be evaluating and adopting now, as their competitors are moving rapidly! techcrunch.com/2026/04/17/lo…
