It’s not just China that has the global retail community on edge – the administration has also proposed tariffs on imported goods from Russia and Brazil, trade relations with the EU are in flux, and let’s not forget about Nafta.

It’s difficult to imagine what post-Brexit life will be like for global retailers – and even more difficult to imagine how they’ll get there.

Fast, good and cheap – how P2P systems allow retailers to have all three

GTM: Quality control and supplier compliance

By Chirag Patel | Digital Sourcing & Global Sourcing, Global Trade Management | 03.08.2018

Global trade is significantly more complex and presents more risk than domestic trade, given changing regulations and standards across different countries and the varied levels of transparency throughout a global supply chain.
