Hey everyone! I'm excited to announce the latest episode of the Tech On Toast podcast, where we dive deep into the world of logistics and delivery with Patrick Eve, the Head of UK at Nash. If you're in the hospitality or retail sectors, this episode is a must-listen! Here are three key takeaways that stood out to me: The Evolution of Delivery Services: Patrick shared fascinating insights into how delivery services are evolving, especially in the hospitality sector. With the rise of catering and meal kits, businesses are looking for ways to enhance their delivery offerings. Nash is at the forefront of this change, providing customizable logistics solutions that allow restaurants and retailers to manage their own delivery experiences while maintaining brand integrity. This shift is crucial as more businesses recognize the importance of owning the customer journey. Data-Driven Decision Making: One of the most compelling points discussed was the significance of data in understanding customer behavior. Patrick emphasized how businesses can leverage customer data to improve their delivery services. By tracking metrics such as delivery times, customer preferences, and even pilfering incidents, companies can make informed decisions that enhance their operations and customer satisfaction. This data-centric approach is essential for businesses looking to thrive in a competitive market. The Importance of Reliability: In the world of delivery, reliability is everything. Patrick highlighted how Nash's platform ensures that businesses can provide a consistent and reliable delivery experience. With features like real-time tracking and route optimization, businesses can manage their internal and external fleets effectively. This not only improves customer satisfaction but also streamlines operations, allowing staff to focus on what they do best—providing excellent service. If you're interested in how technology is reshaping the delivery landscape and want to learn more about Nash's innovative solutions, be sure to check out the full episode!

It shouldn't be news to anyone that the last-mile delivery segment is going absolutely bananas. Supercharged by the COVID-19 pandemic, online retail isn't slowing down; in fact, according to researchers at Statista, global retail e-commerce sales reached an estimated $5.8 trillion last year. Projections indicate a 39% growth in this figure over the coming years, with expectations to surpass $8 trillion by 2027.To understand the effect this incomprehensible amount of dollars intends to have on the tire industry, we're sitting down with Marshall Gillespie, director of proprietary brand commercial merchandising at American Tire Distributors (ATD). Gillespie discusses emerging trends in the medium-duty truck tire market, the growing acceptance of value-oriented brands like Hercules Tires and the impact of economic conditions on purchasing decisions. He also shares how fleet owners and operators are more open to exploring new brands to achieve cost savings without sacrificing quality, a shift ATD is capitalizing on as the company expands its portfolio to meet this demand. “We're really leaning into [last-mile delivery] in terms of our product portfolio, our ideas for new product development, and our stocking strategies,” he says. Additionally, Gillespie touches on the return of market stability in 2024 after a challenging 2023 and forecasts modest growth for 2025, driven by increased utilization in Class 8 trucks. Tire Review: www.tirereview.com AAPEX: www.aapexshow.com
