Why one 3PL thinks manufacturing has experienced, and will continue to experience, migration to China.
I think the comment at the bottom of the page is particularly interesting. As Chinese labor strikes, demanding better wages and more just working conditions, and as rent and shipping increase in cost, I wonder how whether more and more manufacturing will come back to the U.S. What will happen if this occurs? Will we face shortages of land and infrastructure? Will we face issues of lost skills in the workforce? According to a recent NYT article, signs point to yes.
At the very least, I should have an interesting career to look forward to as a supply chain professional.
