Transcript of Iwla 2016 fall conference
IWLA-Canada’s 2016 Fall Conference follows in the
path of its predecessors showcasing the best in
thinking for the future of warehousing and logistics.
Our two presenters – Joe Couto of HighJump and
Keith Gouveia of Lowe’s Canada – will each present
a view of the current state of practice and provide a
direction for the future.
In the past 10 years, we have witnessed incredible
changes in warehouse technology, software,
technique, material handling and personnel. But what
can we expect in the next 10? New forces are driving
the direction for the warehouses of the future. In the
past few years we have seen increasing numbers of
consumers shopping online for everything from
groceries to cars. And we have seen retailers of all
types working to meet these new demands. In the
process, retailers are looking more and more to
third-party warehousing and logistics companies to
help fulfill the orders. Partnerships are being formed;
the dividing line between retailer and service-provider
is becoming ever more blurred. Joe Couto, Chief
Operating Officer, Logistics for HighJump, will take a
look at the current state of warehousing and logistics
practice and discuss some possibilities for the future
– technologies, techniques, personnel and equipment.
No matter what the future brings, there are building
blocks you need to develop now to lay the foundation
for your future operations.
What does it take to succeed in today’s competitive
home improvement marketplace and to prosper in the
future? Keith Gouveia, Regional Transportation
Manager at Lowe’s Canada, will discuss a few of the
logistics and transportation tools that companies
employ in Canada to drive their success. His
presentation will include his perspective on systems,
labour, transportation and warehousing that will
enable the retailer of the future to meet the needs of
the customer of the future. It’s an environment where
omni-channel and showcasing define a retailer’s
competitive position.
Join us for what promises to be a session that’s full
of useful and useable ideas and that still provides
time for networking.
