Is your supply chain ready for the holidays? Today, hosts Scott Luton and Karin Bursa break down the biggest challenges shaping global supply networks this season — from tariff uncertainty and inflationary pressures to shifting consumer expectations and the ongoing semiconductor shortage. Welcome to The Buzz, powered by OMP!

Scott and Karin are joined by Chris Butler, CEO of National Tree Company, to explore how consumer behavior continues to evolve, including the accelerating move toward online shopping and the rising demand for fast, reliable delivery during peak holiday periods.

Together, they discuss:

  • The ripple effects of tariffs and inflation on pricing, availability, and inventory management
  • How the semiconductor crisis is reshaping automotive supply chains worldwide
  • The growing role of artificial intelligence in improving supply chain agility and decision-making
  • Strategies for maintaining resilience and responsiveness in a volatile market

Listen in as we unpack what’s driving today’s supply chain challenges — and how leaders can stay ahead of the curve this holiday season and beyond.
