Host Sonari Glinton explores why we’ve all been warned to start holiday shopping early. We discover how toymakers are navigating shipping delays, what’s causing those delays, and why local, independent shops have an important role to play in alleviating supply chain shortages.
On this episode of our supply chain season, we meet Nora O’Leary, President of Manhattan Toy, who’s had to make some tough decisions this year. Lars Jensen, CEO of Vespucci Maritime, is an expert in the shipping world who breaks down exactly what is breaking down, and why. And we meet Keewa Nurullah, a toy store owner in Chicago, who believes supply chain challenges are highlighting the importance of local, independent shops.
