The Retail Industry Leaders Association (RILA)’s annual conference for retail’s leading supply chain executives – LINK2022: The Retail Supply Chain Conference – will meet in person February 20-23, 2022 in Dallas, Texas.

The conference will address the most essential issues within the supply chain vortex including automation, innovation; omnichannel and end-to-end supply chain; distribution, fulfillment, and last mile; sustainability and ESG; transportation and logistics; and workforce/talent.
