There are many components to the freight and logistics space, and one we haven't spent too much time discussing on the first 40 episodes of InTek Freight & Logistics: The Podcast has been warehousing. That's changed with our latest edition, which welcomes John Bollman, Senior Vice President - Industrial Services with Cresa. John takes us through the ins and outs of the industry, from 3PL warehouses to company owned.
He tells about the evolving technology of the warehouse/distribution center space, and how even with AI and automation - having the right employees matters. John goes over how Cresa helps companies looking for warehousing space select locations with a scoring system that values more than cost per square foot, but also transportation access, distance from employees, and a newer consideration due to the aforementioned AI/automation evolution - the power grid.
He also talks about the market - how warehousing is doing today versus freight overall, where warehouses are getting built, and how many are looking for the next big location. To learn more about Cresa, visit www.cresa.com and to reach John directly, you can find him on LinkedIn.
