TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA – April 25, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —

Acclaimed businessman, COO of Canada’s United Bunkers Investors Corporation Konstantinos Kazinakis has built his outstanding expertise in financial management and strategic thinking coming from 21 years of firsthand professional experience in investment banking. The leading financial expert projects continuous growth and improved performance for markets involved in transportation of global goods in the near future.

Focusing on distance, density, and shipment size as major factors in driving up expenses related to transportation, an Oct. 2, 2016 article in CSCMP’s Supply Chain Quarterly points to three resulting shifts in supply chain strategy. First, sourcing strategies are moving from offshoring to nearshoring to deliver products with reduced distances. Second, innovative redesign of packaging is shrinking unit size and weight, fitting more units into less space with less weight. Third, moving from a just-in-time strategy based on low inventory and frequent delivery, shippers are exploring shipment consolidation, employing a hybrid approach maximizing results from shared-route matchmaking, multiproduct containers, and intermodal transport options including rail and trucking.

Celebrated for efficiency and cost savings realized by shippers, these shifts present an opportunity for the transportation industry to explore supply chain practices featuring attractive, value-rich initiatives. Eric Olson, Senior Vice President of BSR, Business for Social Responsibility, highlights plausible initiatives that create value and provide data aimed at developing industry best practices. Through BSR’s Clean Cargo Working Group, industry leaders have worked to standardize performance, streamline data requests, and share information, benefiting both shippers and providers through developments like the intermodal carbon calculator, which displays optimum dock-to-dock delivery footprints underscoring a variety of transport methods. Olson also cites the Sustainability Consortium, Unilever’s Sustainable Living Plan, and P&G’s Supplier Sustainability Scorecard as additional contributors to positive industry practices, improving both perception and performance.

Dedicated to identifying comprehensive trade financing solutions and specializing in oil bunkering & trading companies, United Bunkers Investors Corporation is supported by Financial Technology trade financing platform for a high technology solution to the global trade finance market, which is worth more than $ 4 Trillion US dollars a year, the gap is currently around $1.4 Trillion for the innovation in making trade financing more efficient and to protect against all risk.
