Hi...new to this thread and glad it's here. This may be a naive question but when Expeditors talks about "distribution" as one of their value-added services, what do they mean? Also is the just-in-time delivery trend a net benefit to EXPD. On the one hand, it would seem that more frequent, although smaller, shipments would be helpful. On the other, just-in-time might create a risk since it is based on the idea of quickly changing fashions. Any thoughts? Thanks.
