Content: If a natural disaster were to affect these things, distribution networks should be set up to easily move items through varying global regions. 2. Transportation Failure
Cargo theft, regulation changes, shipping damage, weather, and traffic delays are some examples of potential supply chain disruptions in transportation. New logistics and transportation service providers enter the market each year, creating a more competitive landscape by driving down costs, but unfortunately also driving up risks.
