The world has seen massive change over the last five years. Climate change, geopolitical conflicts, a global pandemic and shifting alliances have all impacted supply chains in all aspects. Two months into 2025, the year has already faced a myriad of challenges that have significantly impacted supply chains and logistics.
From escalating conflicts and trade wars to climate change, technological vulnerabilities, resource scarcity, regulatory changes, and health crises, businesses are having to navigate a complex and dynamic environment. In the first episode of the new Beyond the Box podcast season, hosts Hal Kuang and Cecilia Larsen speak with Toni Fondevilla, Maersk’s Global Automotive Vertical Lead, and Neil Ashby, Maersk’s Global Vertical Head for Retail, on how businesses are changing and adapting to new challenges in global trade and logistics.
This episode dives into:
- The impact of new geopolitics developments, including tariffs, on supply chains and global trade.
- How businesses are rerouting shipping and sourcing strategies.
- Key industries affected, from manufacturing to e-commerce.
- Future trends in trade policy, logistics, and international shipping.
With supply chain disruptions, trade policy shifts, and evolving import/export regulations, companies must stay ahead to remain competitive.
