For instance, technology is a crucial driver of growth in the toy industry. 3D printing and other cutting-edge technologies have increasingly provided significant opportunities for the toy industry, especially in terms of quickening production and reducing input costs. Sustainability has also presented opportunities for the industry. By incorporating environment-friendly materials in new product development and instituting toy recycling programs, the company can considerably drive business growth. Innovation would actually be crucial for minimizing the company's dependence on one or a few product lines. Further growth opportunities are presented by global expansion. Presently, the company has production facilities in the U.S. and Mexico only.… Continue Reading...
increasingly adopted digital technologies in an effort to serve their customers better. Among other technologies, cargo tracking technologies, surveillance systems, sensor technologies, wireless technologies, mobile equipment, drones, 3D printing technologies, and analytics technologies are gaining popularity in the port industry. These technologies have proved to be valuable in ensuring timely shipping and cargo delivery, guaranteeing cargo security, maximizing port capacity, improving process efficiency, and reducing operational costs for both port operators and their clients (Accenture, 2016; Heilig, Schwarze and Vob, 2017).
Nonetheless, there is little empirical evidence of the relationship between digitalization and customer satisfaction in the port industry. Focusing on APM Terminals (APM), the present study sought to fill this gap in literature. The study specifically… Continue Reading...
