International supply chains introduce challenges that domestic operations don't face:
customs clearance, tariffs, documentation requirements, longer and less predictable
lead times, multiple arriers and freight modes, and exposure to geo-political risk. For
businesses growing internationally — or those already operating across borders but without a structured logistics strategy — the cost and service impact of getting it wrong is significant.
