The move marks a divergence from central mega-warehouses that ship e-commerce orders across the US to smaller warehouses located in closer proximity to customers. Incorporating smaller warehouses \u201cmakes your network more complex, but it allows you shorter distances and more flexibility,\u201d logistics expert Inna Kuznetsova said.

The paper highlights a decline in US imports from China from 2017 to 2022, along with an uptick in imports from Mexico and Vietnam. The shift is linked to US policies aimed at uncoupling the US and China's economies. However, Chinese companies are counteracting this through increased exports and investments in Mexico and Vietnam, maintaining indirect supply-chain connections.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong> Labor unions continue eyeing better working conditions: <\/strong>Several US airlines including <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.delta.com\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Delta Air Lines<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.boeing.com\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Boeing<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.united.com\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">United Airlines<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.southwest.com\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Southwest Airlines<\/a> and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aa.com\/homePage.do?locale=en_US\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">American Airlines<\/a> have been impacted by recent strikes which started before the pandemic, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2023\/08\/27\/labor-unions-winning-better-pay-hours.html\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">CNBC<\/a> reports.
