Creator's Key Takeaways

this is an easy one june 2001 my honeymoon my husband who is mr consumer reports had done all the research and he decided that the perfect vacation would be an alaska cruise

we've weathered it uh i would say decent but you know of course with the it's it's a fluid change it's constantly changing

we are still buying things but it's a it's a sort of a limited uh scope of what we're buying

i think that if they had what we would have considered to be an sf inventory based on our pre-covet usage levels then there may be some issues but we'll certainly partner with them and work through it however we can

Creator's Tips & Advice

Monitor inventory levels monthly or more frequently for high-turning items
Extend payment terms and maintain constant communication with suppliers and customers
Focus on newer, more energy-efficient ships for initial return to service
Seek regional suppliers for spot buys and smaller volumes during gradual return
