Collaboration across the full value chain - Andrew Schwarz

Collaboration between manufacturers and distributors will be key to the success of the industry.

In fact, distributors are already collaborating with suppliers on new products and services that they can offer their customers. This trend will only accelerate as the market becomes increasingly competitive. As we have seen in recent years, there is no shortage of ideas.
