Are These 15 Supply Chain Myths Costing Your Business? Under The Pallet Wrap Episode 23

Are These 15 Supply Chain Myths Costing Your Business? More stock means better availability. Automation fixes everything. The cheapest supplier delivers the lowest cost. Sounds reasonable, doesn't it? But anyone who's spent enough time working in supply chain and logistics knows that some of the most expensive business decisions start with assumptions that nobody thinks to challenge. In this episode of Under The Pallet Wrap, Dan Culverhouse and Keith Dupres take on 15 of the biggest myths in supply chain, logistics and operations. And they're asking a simple question: WHO TOLD YOU THAT?! From warehouses that look incredibly busy but achieve surprisingly little, to businesses investing in technology without fixing their processes, we explore the beliefs that continue to influence decisions, budgets and performance. Along the way, we get into: 🔸 Why more inventory doesn't always mean better customer service. 🔸 Whether automation really delivers the efficiencies businesses expect. 🔸 Why the cheapest supplier can become the most expensive. 🔸 The difference between a busy warehouse and a productive one. 🔸 Why outsourcing logistics doesn't mean outsourcing responsibility. 🔸 How departmental KPIs can make individual teams look successful while the business suffers. 🔸 Why supply chain deserves a bigger voice in business strategy. Some of these myths are surprisingly persistent. Others contain just enough truth to make them dangerous. And a few might even have Dan and Keith disagreeing. With decades of experience between them, they challenge conventional thinking, share their perspectives and explore what happens when accepted wisdom meets operational reality. Now it's your turn. 💬 What's the biggest supply chain myth you've encountered? And has believing it ever cost your business money, time or customers? Tell us in the comments.
