They ship 50,000 boxes a day. That’s 1.2 - 1.3 million units of product a day, with over 2,000 employees, 10 facilities in the US and Canada, that’s astounding complexity when you’re shipping 13 million boxes a year, and moving over 300 million products annually.

But what I love about Dan and his team at alphabroder is how their success, their size, and their scale hasn’t changed how approachable and helpful they are … it’s a passion Dan is fixated on in his new role as alphabroder’s president and CEO. Though Dan Pantano is the recently appointed President and CEO, he has been with alphabroder for 8 years and he is no stranger to leadership, he is the former president of Thermofisher Scientific a $32 billion-dollar company in the healthcare  industry, and the former president of McKesson, today, Dan joins us to chat about several timely topics:

  • The current challenges and opportunities that supply & demand have placed on our supply chain 

  • The impact of private equity on the shape of alphabroder

  • Developing an executive team

  • And leadership at scale
