Uncovering Hidden Margin in Last Mile Shipping with Keyan Bazargan

In this conversation, Keyan Bazargan discusses the importance of focusing on last mile shipping as a strategic area for brands to reduce costs and improve efficiency. He emphasizes that this area offers significant opportunities for savings without causing major disruptions to the supply chain.

  • Strategic focus on last mile shipping can lead to operational efficiency.
