Subscriber to Kareem’s messages and wit. The link is there if you wish to read the rest of his message. How do you justify what is occurring? We are preparing for an economic plunge by staying out of debt and having the funding to carry us through. It is not like the country did not […]
I worked in Supply Chain a lifetime. Doing the planning, purchasing the materials, negotiating the pricing, negotiating the needs of manufacture in failing and growing economies, and being efficient in my planning of it.
