Unusually high temps, followed by a cold front (and in some places, snow). As always, our hats are off to those who are out there in the field keeping the loop of distribution going &#8211; whatever the weather! This week we are sharing a great series from 21st Century Supply chain, filling you in on a warehouse shortage issue within the U.S., celebrating a great distribution story, and passing on some details within the trucking industry.<\/p>\n<p>In case you missed it, we also published a <a href=\"http:\/\/crimsonandco.info\/blog\/progress-group-supply-chain-review-sales-marketing-update\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sales and marketing update<\/a> and some insight on <a href=\"http:\/\/crimsonandco.info\/blog\/warehouse-design-distribution-solutions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">food and beverage warehouse design<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I.<\/strong> We like a well-written series. The <em><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.kinaxis.com\/2017\/02\/improving-supply-chain-collaboration-connecting-people\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">21st Century Supply Chain<\/a><\/em> blog has published the final installment of their 3-part series on improving supply chain collaboration. The 3rd part focuses on the best ways to connect people and it is worth your read. It tackles the vital question, &#8220;How can you get people connecting, communicating and collaborating in real time to make optimal decisions faster?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>II.<\/strong> Recently we told you about the crisis of warehouse space in the UK. Turns out it&#8217;s not just a problem happening across the pond. The demand of warehouses is being felt strongly in the U.S. as well. With the continued expansion of the Port of Savannah, the pains of a dwindling square footage inventory are being felt in Georgia. Georgia Ports\u2019 executive director Griff Lynch <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blufftontoday.com\/news\/2017-02-09\/gpa-sells-500-acres-help-meet-warehouse-demand\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">announced the sale of some 500 acres<\/a> of property for commercial development to accommodate growing customer demand for warehousing, distribution and transload facilities near the Port of Savannah.<\/p>\n<p><strong>III.<\/strong> It&#8217;s always exciting when a distribution center can expand. We were especially touched by this <a href=\"http:\/\/abc30.com\/society\/organization-started-by-young-girl-to-help-get-books-to-children-get-new-distribution-center\/1745001\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">story out of Fresno<\/a>. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.readingheart.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Reading Heart<\/a> was created by a young girl named Danay Ferguson. Her goal was to provide a book to every child in Fresno. Due to the success of her project she now has more room to grow. Volunteers and organizers have collected over half a million books. They plan to use the new distribution center as a place to store and manage the book collection and then eventually turn it into a place where children can visit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>IV.<\/strong> Need some help navigating through new regulations from our new administration?
