Monday, February 18, 2013 – Orlando, Fla.

McKenna Logistics Centres recently promoted their Canadian supply chain advantages this week at the Retail Industry Leaders Associations Logistics 2013 Retail Supply Chain Conference in Orlando, Fla. The main areas that McKenna promoted were its ability to work with a wide variety of mass retailers across Canada and their ability to successfully integrate with these companies to increase productivity and minimize compliance issues. 

”The RILA Logistics 2013 conference presents me with the opportunity to meet face-to-face with numerous leaders in the retail industry from both Canada and the United States,” stated Nevil Corbeth, Vice President Sales and Marketing for McKenna Logistics Centres. ”This event gives me the opportunity to illustrate how McKenna can reduce our customers costs for logistics in Canada while increasing their order accuracy and on time delivery, especially in the competitive Toronto Logistics market. By dealing with the top decision makers from retailers such as Wal-Mart, The Home Depot, Target, etc., we are better able to understand their needs when it comes to inventory management, warehousing, distribution and transportation. This is invaluable to our logistics organization.”

The four-day RILA event consisted of panel discussions, keynote addresses, networking sessions and a sponsor exhibit and trade show. RILA Logistics 2013 is the largest event of its kind in North America with more than 130 international retailers being represented at the annual conference took place from Feb. 17-20 in Orlando.
