DESCRIPTION

E-commerce sales in Europe are set to rise by 18% to £131.2 billion by the end of 2014 and these increased volumes are putting unprecedented demands on the supply chains of e-commerce and omni-channel retailers. The rapidly changing delivery expectations of e-commerce customers, driven by trends towards click & collect and next day delivery, mean that operating an effective e-commerce supply chain and fulfilment operation presents a whole new set of challenges. To meet these new expectations, e-commerce retailers need to find new solutions at every stage, from demand forecasting, through to inventory management, warehousing, technology integration and distribution. The inaugural E-Commerce & Omni-Channel: Supply Chain & Fulfilment 2015 congress is designed specifically for supply chain, logistics and fulfilment professionals. Consisting of 100% retailer case studies, the congress will provide customer demand-driven solutions that respond to fulfilment and supply chain challenges specific to e-commerce and omni-channel operations. Attendees will walk away with actionable solutions for meeting customer expectations and growing their customer bases. Speakers at the congress will explain the cutting-edge solutions they have applied to quantify customer expectation, plan for peak demand periods and optimise their inventory, warehousing and distribution strategy to minimise lead times and adapt to changing customer requirements.

E-commerce sales in Europe are set to rise by 18% to £131.2 billion by the end of

2014 and these increased volumes are putting unprecedented demands on the supply

chains of e-commerce and omni-channel retailers.

The rapidly changing delivery expectations of e-commerce customers, driven by

trends towards click & collect and next day delivery, mean that operating an effective

e-commerce supply chain and fulfilment operation presents a whole new set of

challenges. To meet these new expectations, e-commerce retailers need to find new

solutions at every stage from demand forecasting, through inventory management,

warehousing, technology integration and distribution.

The inaugural E-Commerce & Omni-Channel: Supply Chain & Fulfilment 2015

congress is designed specifically for supply chain, logistics and fulfilment professionals.

Consisting of 100% retailer case studies, the congress will provide customer demand

driven solutions that respond to fulfilment and supply chain challenges specific to

e-commerce and omni-channel operations. Attendees will walk away with actionable

solutions for meeting customer expectations and growing their customer bases.

Speakers at the congress will explain the cutting-edge solutions they have applied

to quantify customer expectation, plan for peak demand periods and optimise their

inventory, warehousing, and distribution strategy, to minimise lead times and adapt to

changing customer requirements.

For retail e-commerce operators involved with supply chain and fulfilment it is an

unmissable opportunity to ensure industry practices are upheld and developed through

the brand new material presented at the congress.

T he First E-Commerce Congress 100% Focused On Supply Chain

& Fulfilment: The only e-commerce congress 100% focused on supply chain and fulfilment issues and directly targeted towards the needs of supply chain job titles (rather than towards ecommerce and marketing job titles like most ecommerce congresses)

D esigned For Supply Chain, Logistics & Fulfilment Job Titles:

The agenda was designed in collaboration with supply chain, logistics and fulfilment job titles to ensure each session speaks specifically to overcoming the specific challenges that e-commerce operations are creating for their job role

1 00% Retailer Case Studies: The only e-commerce supply chain

congress to feature an entirely retail led speaker faculty, instead of vendors or logistics companies

L ooking At Every Stage Of The E-Commerce Supply Chain: The

only congress to assess development opportunities across the entire e-commerce and omni-channel supply chains, from order placement to delivery, to provide the insights necessary to optimise end-to-end operations
