Global approach to supply chain getting 2nd look,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
When Tesla Motors,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a pioneer in electric-powered cars,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], set out to make a luxury roadster for the American market, it had the global supply chain in mind. Tesla planned to manufacture 1,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],000-pound battery packs in Thailand,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], ship them to Britain for installation, then bring the mostly assembled cars back to the United States.
But when it began production this spring, the company decided to make the batteries and assemble the cars near its home base in California,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], cutting more than 5,000 miles from the shipping bill for each vehicle.
was kind of a no-brain decision for us,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], said Darryl Siry,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the company senior vice president of global sales,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], marketing and service. major reason was to avoid the transportation costs, which are terrible. world economy has become so integrated that shoppers find relatively few T-shirts and sneakers in Wal-Mart and Target carrying a in the USA label. But globalization may be losing some of the inexorable economic power it had for much of the past quarter-century,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], even as it faces fresh challenges as a political ideology.
Cheap oil,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the lubricant of quick,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], inexpensive transportation links across the world, may not return anytime soon, upsetting the logic of diffuse global supply chains that treat geography as a footnote in the pursuit of lower wages. is necessarily leading to a rethinking of this emissions-intensive model, whether the increased interest in growing foods locally, producing locally or shopping locally, and I think that great. economists argue that globalization will not shift into reverse even if oil prices continue their rising trend. But many see evidence that companies looking to keep prices low will have to move some production closer to consumers. Globe-spanning supply chains Brazilian iron ore turned into Chinese steel used to make washing machines shipped to Long Beach and then trucked to appliance stores in Chicago make less sense today than they did a few years ago.
Decisions like those suggest that what some economists call a neighborhood effect putting factories closer to components suppliers and to consumers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], to reduce transportation costs could grow in importance if oil remains expensive. A barrel sold for $125 Friday, compared with lows of $10 a decade ago.
prices stay at these levels, that could lead to some significant rearrangement of production,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], among sectors and countries,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], said C. Peterson Institute for International Economics, in Washington.相关的主题文章:
