Pregis' Ryan Germann will be discussing the top 10 surcharges to avoid during the 2018 Parcel Forum on September 25th.
Today, many companies are struggling to control shipping costs. A significant portion of those costs now come in the form of surcharges. As negotiation with carriers to remove or reduce these charges has become increasingly difficult, there is now a shift to develop solutions internally which reduce the impact of surcharges. In this session, you will hear descriptions of common parcel surcharges from a former FedEx employee as well as explore opportunities to mitigate the impact of these surcharges through updating things such as fulfillment strategy and parcel packaging.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
• Common surcharges introduction
• Which surcharges can/cannot be negotiated with carriers
• Opportunities to avoid/reduce surcharges
If you’re planning to attend Parcel Forum, we welcome you to attend the session on Wednesday from 10:00am-10: 50 AM. We look forward to seeing you there!
