Here’s the latest installment of our “Getting To Know GROWMARK” series. I talked logistics with Tracy Mack.
He says they deal with storage and movement. That includes well over 100,000 truck loads of product a year, 650 barge loads, 9,000 rail cars and an occasional vessel. They do wholesale operations for members but also have a supply chain optimization tool they take out to them to analyze their retail movements, warehousing and blending. Then they can make sure it’s all integrated and optimized.
Tracy sees lots of growth and price volatility in the future for the products they move and the freight to move the products. It’s fast moving with lots of competitive pressures. Since things have to move fast it makes “every day different and more exciting.” Flexibility is key for them.
