Description: Supply chains around the world are being tested like never before. Demand for pulp, paper and forest products is at a record high. Coupled with reduced mill capacity and a shortage of ocean freighters, dock workers and truck drivers have created a perfect storm of limited supply and increased costs. Our panel of paper industry experts will answer key questions like, when will it all settle down, when will supply catch up to demand, when will prices stabilize and what is the forecast for additional mill, labor and transportation capacity. Mingle with your colleagues and enjoy a summer inspired menu from one of the most popular food trucks in Dallas.
