Back-to-school is around the corner, are you prepared?

September is around the corner and back to school is not only an exciting time for students and parents but also a peak season for logistics and supply chain operations. As schools gear up to reopen their doors and families prepare for the upcoming year, the demand for various products and services can experience a significant surge.
