The seminar will take place at CSCMP in Anaheim, California on Sept. 17 at 2 p.m. PDT. Scheduled speakers are Ashfaque Chowdhury, president, supply chain – Americas and Asia Pacific, XPO Logistics; and Ken Kerns, vice president, logistics and warehousing, Serta Simmons Bedding. They will discuss fulfilment strategies for heavy goods through multiple channels, including e-commerce home delivery.

“The rapid growth in online orders of big-ticket items is driving the evolution of retail channels. The strongest fulfillment networks are partnerships between retailers, manufacturers and supply chain service providers. This is the foundation for delivering a parcel-like consumer experience for heavy goods,” said Chowdhury.

XPO will also sponsor a private welcome reception at CSCMP hosted by AWESOME, an organization committed to the advancement of women in supply chain.
