Over the past few years, we all know suppliers have navigated turbulent waters, but as our supply chain slowly strengthens, new challenges emerge. At skucamp, the leaders of three of the industry’s largest suppliers joined Catherine Graham, commonsku’s Co-founder and CEO on stage to answer audience questions and discuss the state of the industry now and their perspective on the future. The panel featured David Nicholson - Vice Chairman at PCNA, Dan Pantano, President & CEO at AlphaBroder Prime and Jonathan Isaacson, Chairman and CEO at Gemline.

The spirited panel was a highlight of the event and included topics including:

  • the impact of inflation

  • the possibility of a recession and how to shape our decisions in light of it

  • the incredible automation and tech developments suppliers are investing in right now

  • And the topic of “distributor enablement” a term coined by David Nicholson that bodes well for our collective future.  

Join us for one of the most engaging and enlightening conversations about the current state of our industry and the strength of our future that we have heard in a while!
