Asian Supply-Chain Alternatives to China

Recent Covid-19 related shutdowns and Trade War tariffs have underscored the importance of diversifying your supply chain. Geopolitical and pandemic events aside, costs of doing business in China have steadily increased over the last decade. Many businesses are facing the fact that sourcing or manufacturing in China is just not sustainable anymore.  

While costs have increased in China, countries in Southeast Asia have increasingly become competitive options for supply chain alternatives. The region’s proximity to China and its established supply chains, the trade interconnectivity of ASEAN, and the low costs that accompany developing markets are only some of the factors that make certain countries in the region strong options to consider.

Join us on June 17^th at 12:00pm CDT as Dezan Shira & Associates’, Dustin Daugherty, Head of North American business development, joins a roundtable with the International Trade Association of Greater Chicago and discusses options your business should consider in Asia.

This event costs $35 for members of the International Trade Association of Greater Chicago and $50 for non-members.
