Memphis, Tenn., June 6, 2016 - Green Mountain Technology (GMT), a leading provider of Parcel Spend Management solutions, has released "The Impact of Brand Strategy on Parcel Transportation: 2017 Annual Benchmark Report" to customers and survey participants.
In the first quarter of 2017, GMT in collaboration with Cleveland Research, completed the second Annual Benchmark Survey focused on emerging trends in retail brand strategy and impacts on order fulfillment and parcel transportation. The survey netted nearly 80 responses from some of the largest brands in the U.S. GMT began this research initiative to support customers with thought leadership content regarding the latest trends in the parcel industry.
A first look at the data was given during GMT's 12th Annual Parcel Summit at the Peabody Hotel in Memphis, Tenn. on May 17-18. Attendance for the Parcel Summit nearly doubled in 2017 and included more than 100 executives from the largest retail, e-commerce, manufacturing and life sciences brands in the U.S. Data from the Benchmark was featured in several sessions and Summit attendees identified this as a key component of the Summit.
"What was most valuable was verifying the trends of our industry and seeing, discussing, and exchanging thoughts on how to most effectively respond in order to stay relevant in our market," explained Summit attendee, Ray Shearer, Transportation Director at Thirty-One Gifts. "I would recommend the Parcel Summit to others."
