The logistics industry is undergoing rapid transformation, shaped by automation, changing regulations, and the growing demands of global e-commerce. In a recent Air Cargo Week interview, Alison Layfield, Director of Product Development at ePost Global, shared her insights on navigating these challenges.
“Automation is transforming how logistics companies handle shipments, improving both processing times and operational efficiencies,” Layfield explained. “Real-time tracking has become essential, and sustainability is now a growing focus.”
Layfield also addressed the challenges posed by shifting de minimis thresholds, which increase costs and complexity for U.S. businesses shipping internationally.
“When de minimis thresholds are lowered, businesses face additional duties and taxes, making products less competitive. Accurate documentation and knowledgeable partners are critical to navigating these changes,” Layfield shared.
