Jim Berlin, founder and CEO of Logistics Plus, was featured alongside other successful entrepreneurs in the Ninth Annual State of Entrepreneurship Address presented by the Kauffman Foundation.

“Too many are left out of our economy. The long-term decline in entrepreneurship has dragged down productivity, wages and living standards for all Americans. Put simply—fewer startups mean a lower quality of life. We need to eliminate barriers for anyone who has an idea to start and grow a business, and we need to redefine the meaning of “entrepreneur.” This is how we work toward a new, inclusive and empowering economy.”
The 2018 State of Entrepreneurship Address featured speeches by:
Wendy Guillies, president and CEO of the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation
Victor W. Hwang, vice president of Entrepreneurship at the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation

Thank you to the folks at Wonolo (stands for Work. Now. Locally.) for including Logistics Plus in their “Best Ways to Boost Warehouse Productivity” blog post. The most productive warehouses have systems and processes that enable their operations to run like well-oiled machines. But with so many moving parts, fluctuations in demand, increased customer expectations, and other shifting dynamics, boosting productivity in the warehouse setting is often easier said than done. To gain some insight into the productivity-boosting tactics and strategies today’s warehouse operators find most effective, the folks at Wonolo reached out to a panel of warehouse professionals, including LP’s own Patrick Randolph, to ask the question: “What’s the single best way for warehouses to improve productivity?” You can read Patrick’s reply below; or read the full online article here: https://www.wonolo.com/blog/improve-warehouse-productivity/
