Dr. Chris Mejía-Argueta and Dr. Mauricio Gamez discuss their latest research on the role of perishability and uncertainty on supply chains worldwide. Maintaining food quality is a major challenge in today's industry, with disruptions like poor handling, transportation issues, and packaging failures accelerating spoilage.
This session will address innovative logistics strategies and data- and model-driven perspectives to optimize supply chain design while tracking food freshness and reducing waste and lost sales. Our model integrates advanced prescriptive analytics to improve speed and efficiency in supply chains. Applied in a real-world case study, this approach helps businesses plan and operate distribution networks that balance cost and freshness, ensuring better food quality and the best profit.
Dr. Mejia and Dr. Gamez bring a global perspective on supply chain transformation, offering insights into how businesses can optimize operations in dynamic, complex, and uncertain situations.
