Cyclical Factors Driving Supply Chain Network

Kyle Roberts, CCIM, SIOR, CSCMP, Vice Chairman – Industrial & Logistics / Capital Markets at Newmark Mountain West, illustrates the cyclical factors driving supply chain networks and where the economy currently sits within that cycle.

He explores how the COVID-19 pandemic led to a rapid inventory build phase before the market changed, reverting to historical consumption patterns. Companies quickly moved towards inventory rationalization and reduced inventories, which drove the economy into the network optimization phase, which is where we are today. Utah is well-positioned to benefit from the current market dynamics.
