The Conveyor is a new supply chain news publication.

What’s different is that, along with covering the news, I (Gowtham) talk to the operators to dive deeper into key topics—bringing you exclusive insights from their firsthand experiences.

Think news meets podcast, with the top takeaways broken down in an easy-to-read format.

As a subscriber, here’s what you can expect:

  • 🧠 Weekly Articles: 1-2 articles per week, featuring insights from expert operators.

  • 📥 Daily Emails: A daily email on the top supply chain news, summarized in a 2-minute read.

My mission is to help you gain a well-rounded understanding of the news and trends reshaping supply chains, so you can make more informed decisions.

The inspiration for The Conveyor comes from my own experience, shaped by years of navigating supply chain issues.

I'm Gowtham, founder and writer of The Conveyor.

My journey in supply chains started in 2017 when I founded an electronics manufacturing company.

I built the company through the heights of the pandemic, dealing with supply chain breakdowns nearly every day.

During that time, I spent much of my day gathering information to make critical supply chain decisions - whether it was figuring out where to source parts, where to assemble products, or how to navigate risks. I leaned on two key resources: traditional news outlets and, more importantly, direct insights from suppliers and logistics partners.

Looking back, I realized that while mainstream news was helpful, the real gold came from those on the ground.

But when I spoke to my peers, I found that most didn’t have access to this kind of firsthand insight.

That’s what inspired the format of The Conveyor.

Combined with a curiosity about how technology, regulations, and geopolitics are reshaping global supply chains, I decided to create a smarter, more efficient way for professionals to keep up with these changes—powered by insights from those who understand the implications the best.

The Conveyor will quickly become an essential part of your news stack, bringing you curated supply chain news and firsthand insights you (likely) won’t find anywhere else.

Thousands of professionals from companies like Amazon, Apple, Walmart, and Maersk already read The Conveyor daily.

I’d love for you to join them!
