The uberisation of logistics
Uber this, Uber that Ever since Uber reinvented taxi services by placing itself in between customers and private car owners, 'uberisation' has become a craze. That doesn't mean that everything will, or even can, apply the Uber concept, but it certainly doesn't stop people from trying. From taxis to home deliveries, from laundry to legal services, uberisation is being applied into many different sectors. How close is it to significantly disrupting logistics? When supply chain leaders like Walmart start to test the waters by using Uber and its competitor Lyft to make last mile deliveries, it's probably time to take notice or to start catching up.
