Pourquoi miser sur le commerce interprovincial pour diversifier ses marchés?
Aujourd’hui plus que jamais, les manufacturiers canadiens se retrouvent dans l’un des environnements opérationnels les plus complexes dont on se souvienne.

Il s’agit de réalités structurelles qui redéfinissent la façon dont les entreprises manufacturières s’organisent, planifient leur stratégie et orientent leurs investissements à long terme.
