A SOUTH Derbyshire slaughterhouse has relocated out of the area after outgrowing its surroundings as they firm planned to expand.
Meat exporting company Pickstock Ashby decided to move its abattoir from its home near Coal Lane, Hartshorne, to Telford in a bid to be able to fulfil proposed expansion efforts.
The move has seen almost all of its existing 65 staff transferred to the town.
The company, which sends beef to 22 countries across the world, has changed its name to Pickstock Telford as a result of the £10 million move.
Owner Greg Pickstock said: “We outgrew the last factory, as we were getting to full capacity.
“Had we invested in our other plant it would been a similar amount to this new investment.
“It has been easier to place jobs here than it was in Hartshorne, there have been more people coming up to the gates.
“This move has brought the company to a new level and it is now capable of supplying a whole range of customers from the local butcher’s shop to the largest retailer with UK beef.”
The company was established in 2003 and based in Derbyshire before it outgrew its existing home in late 2012.
Bosses said it wanted to relocate to new modern premises as the site in Hartshorne needed substantial investment to meet the company’s expansion plans.
The company currently achieves turnover of between £60 to £70 million per year, but expects growth of around 30 per cent as a result of its move to purpose-build premises.
The 85,000 sq ft plant is one of a handful in Europe to have every different process under the same roof, including lairage where cattle rest before slaughter, the meat processing facility, on-site cold stores and despatch, plus a boning and packing plant.
The firm supplies beef products for the national and international retail, commercial and food service markets.
The company was one of the first to export beef back into Europe following the BSE crisis in 2006.
Mr Pickstock said: “Our success in the last 11 years has been built on developing lasting relationships with farmer’s right across the UK.”

BLAIR COUNTY, Pa (WTAJ) — The Fourth of July weekend is quickly approaching, and local attractions and businesses are gearing up for the busy weekend.
According to park manager Joe Basil, that’s much higher than a typical weekend. Canoe Creek has multiple activities, including swimming, picnicking, boating and hiking. Basil expects all parts of the state park to be busy.
“Canoe Creek has a good visitor ship,” Basil said. “The beach will be busy. Hiking trails will be busy. People always find something fun to do.”
However, the visitors this year may be local to the area. Since Canoe Creek is a state park, almost all its activities are free to visitors. Gas prices in the state are averaging close to the $5.00 mark; folks may travel locally to save a buck on travel costs.
“I think people enjoy coming out to the state park and the free parking,” Basil said. “Coming out and doing some hiking. Bringing their food and saving costs that way, not going out to eat, and just having a good old-fashioned barbeque.”
Mac’s Market in Tyrone also sees a similar trend within their store for the holiday. The store has been open for over 40 years and has a loyal customer base.
Owner Brian McManigal said that business has been steady this year regarding the number of customers and orders. However, he said this year; he’s noticed fewer customers from the nearby counties. He believes the reason for that trend is also higher gas prices.
“I would say I’m seeing a little bit less of that and a lot more walking the neighborhoods, people that are very local. That’ll say, ‘Hey, I’m not going to drive to Altoona. I’ll just walk down to Mac’s and scoop it up’ It’s just a little easier that way and a lot less costly in the end.”

McManigal said that meat prices had not been anything crazy different for beef and steak prices within the past year. Although prices for poultry are still higher, coming at around 75 percent higher.
“And over the course of the years, I can tell that this year everyone is like, it’s a long weekend,” McManigal said. “Let’s do this!”

An independent comic publishing company is gearing up for a period of significant expansion.
Insomnia Publications intends to produce eight titles this year and a further 12 during 2010.
The increase in output is being backed by investment gained when the business became a limited company last year.
In the summer, it will mark the 180th anniversary of murderers Burke and Hare by releasing a research-based graphic novel at the Edinburgh Book Festival.
Already its products are stocked by industry giants like Waterstones and Amazon, and a £100,000 turnover is being projected for 2009.
Managing director and founder Crawford Coutts is keen to bring in a business angel to help in further development of the firm. He said: "We have the funding in place for all the titles. The first eight will give us a nice base portfolio and allow the current investors a way out if they want."
The Edinburgh company, founded in 2006, only publishes complete book format stories rather than more traditional monthly or weekly copies as it means titles can be carried by retail chains and have a longer shelf life. It has also used e-books as a marketing tool to show off its titles by publishing chapters of stories online.
Coutts, 25, is going to New York next month to attend the annual Comic Con.
The comics industry is estimated to be worth more than Û8billion globally.

Shodiya Olalekan, a Nigerian graduate, delved into the world of fish farming immediately after graduating from the Federal Polytechnic, Auchi, Edo state. Originally from Ogun state, Olalekan is now based in Lagos, where he runs a big fish farm.
Interestingly, Olalekan started very small when he made up his mind to go into fish farming.

He started small
He narrated his humble beginning to THETALK.NG during an interview and said his determination has made him go far in the business.
“After successfully completing my HND at the Federal Polytechnic Auchi, I officially went into fish farming fully. I am a certified catfish farmer and very passionate about educating people about profitable catfish farming. I am also a graphics design enthusiast, a content creator in fish farming and a foodstuff merchant. Sholeks Farms started with just 100 post fingerlings in a single 1000-litre plastic fish pond, but as of today, it is a 10,000-capacity fish farm.”
Fish farming in Nigeria is profitable in Nigeria
Olalekan described the fish farming business as a highly profitable one if one perseveres and never gives up. He said the profit margin is high once one overcomes the initial challenges.
“There is a huge profit margin for properly managed catfish farming in Nigeria. But before deciding to go into the business, bear in mind that high expectations from the business will lead to utmost disappointment. Understanding that it is a livestock business and any business that involves life is a very risky business, and this will help you as a first-timer– it’s prone to loss. Therefore, it is not a business for the faint-hearted.”
Don’t be discouraged by the loss
But Olalekan said the business can also be very risky. He said there are cases where farmers lose their fish to death. In his opinion, loss should not be a discouraging factor in fish farming.

“As lucrative as the business is, there are so many recorded cases of losses and success in the business. Catfish farming profits can vary from how you sell your fish, how you breed it, how you present and market it and so on. Even the smallest of changes can make a huge difference in maximizing your profit margin in the business.”
There is a big market for catfish in Nigeria
According to Olalekan, good business models and adequate farm management practices kept him afloat over the years.
“A successful catfish farm is one which gives a reasonable return of initial investment, while a successful catfish farmer is one who figures out ways to manage and maximize the profits from the farm. The business has different factors working together that result in a successful business model. Either big or small scale, a farm needs good management, stable finance and determination.”
Olalekan said the demand for catfish, which is the type he farms, is continuously on the rise in Nigeria.
“Fish farming in Nigeria is currently a very lucrative business, and it is mainly boosted by the continuous rise in the demand for catfish, which no one can ever meet the demand.”
Fish farmer displays catfish online
In a related story, THETALK.NG reported that a Nigerian lady who is a fish farmer showed off one of the fish she harvested.
The lad said the catfish was so big that she found it hard to lift it.
When people saw the size of the fish on Twitter, they asked about her location for possible patronage.

Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) reported another massive fiscal year, yet it wasn’t enough to propel shares higher on day two of the massive market rally. On 11/3/23, APPL closed down -$0.92 (-0.52%) on a day when the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) rallied 0.91%, and the Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (QQQ) climbed 1.17%. On the one hand, investors should be thrilled because the market is able to rally without AAPL leading the pack, as AAPL represents 7.19% of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF and 11.02% of the Invesco QQQ ETF. On the other hand, I don’t know why so many investors are down on AAPL, considering the main function of a business is to generate profits. I think that AAPL producing a -2.8% (-$11.04 billion) decline in YoY revenue overshadows the fact that gross margins expanded in an inflationary environment, EPS grew, and AAPL produced $97 billion in net income. In the past two years, AAPL has produced $196.8 billion in net income, which is more profits than most companies will produce in their existence. AAPL is a cash-generating machine that continues to provide value for shareholders. AAPL finished -10.89% (-$21.58) below its 52-week highs, and while shares could go lower, I believe they will be higher than the current levels this time next year. If AAPL trades lower in the short term, I think it’s a great holiday buy.
Following up on my previous article on Apple
Since my last article on AAPL (which can be read here), shares have declined by -0.74% while the S&P 500 has fallen by -2.23%. In my previous article, I discussed how the future macro-environment is setting up well for AAPL, reviewed Q3 earnings, and discussed a possible year-end rally based on the valuations at the time of the article. I am following up with this article to discuss the changes to the macroeconomic environment, why it sets up well for AAPL, and why the current drawdown from AAPL’s highs is an opportunity.
After several months of additional economic data, I believe 2024 is setting up well for Apple
The November Fed meeting has come and gone, and rates remained unchanged once again. After listening to Jerome Powell’s speech and reading through the transcript (can be read here) I felt his tone was cautiously hawkish. He was crystal clear that the Fed understands the hardship on credit and business that higher rates cause, and they are focusing on the data. While he left the door open for another hike if needed, I have a feeling that a pivot is coming in 2024, regardless if we go another 25 bps higher in the short term.
The CME Groups Fed Watch Tool now shows that there is a 10.3% chance rates getting a 25 bps increase in January 2024, but they are now calling for a 25.9% chance that we see our first 25 bps cut in March of 2024. Looking at the end of 2024, there is a 97.1% chance that we will end the year lower with the Fed Funds Rate, and the highest probability is that the target rate is 425-450 bps. There is now an 11.6% chance that we see a sub-4 % rate in 2024. Looking out several years on the Fed dot plot, we are absolutely at the end of the tightening cycle rather than the beginning or middle, and there is a clear path to rates going possibly below 300 bps in the coming years.
This sets up well for AAPL over the next several years. As rates decline, so will the cost of capital, and both consumers and businesses should become looser with their spending. Businesses aren’t expanding as much due to interest on debt, and consumers are being cautious due to the cost of carrying balances on credit cards. AAPL is the greatest consumer company there is, and they just launched a new iPhone and introduced a new computer line on their M3 chip. I think the combination of falling rates and new hardware could set AAPL up to benefit from a lucrative upgrade cycle in the 2nd half of 2024 that extends into 2025.
Negative revenue growth is overshadowing how strong Apple’s 2023 fiscal year was and this is a company that deserves to trade higher, not lower
To put things in perspective, Microsoft (MSFT) has generated $151.6 billion in gross income and $77.1 billion in net income over the TTM, while Alphabet (GOOG)(GOOGL) has generated $166.76 billion in gross profit and $66.73 billion in net income over the TTM.
The market wasn’t thrilled that AAPL generated $383.29 billion in revenue in its 2023 fiscal year, as this was a -2.8% decline YoY from the $394.33 billion AAPL produced in 2022. Individuals don’t go into business to generate the most amount of revenue possible, the end goal is profitability. AAPL beat the Q4 consensus estimates by $0.07 as they generated $1.46 of GAAP EPS while revenue came in line at $89.49 billion. AAPL finished the year generating $383.29 billion in revenue and produced $169.15 billion in gross profit. This placed their gross profit margin at 44.13%, which was up from 43.31% in 2022. On the bottom line, AAPL generated $97 billion in net income, placing its profit margin at 25.31% and producing $99.58 billion in free cash flow (FCF). AAPL was able to grow its EPS by $0.01 despite the loss in revenue, as it came in with $6.16 of EPS for 2023.
AAPL isn’t getting enough credit as it’s navigated geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic headwinds to retain being the most profitable company in the market. AAPL is using its profitability to reward shareholders and forge a path forward through innovations that will set the stage for the next generation of hardware. AAPL saw strong performance in emerging markets, with revenue reaching an all-time record in fiscal 2023 and double-digit growth. AAPL is expanding its presence and will add retail stores in India while implementing e-commerce in Vietnam and Chile. I thought the guidance was strong as this December quarter has 13 weeks compared to 14 weeks last year, yet AAPL expects its revenue to be similar to Q1 2023. The extra week is a big deal as last year it added roughly 7% to the quarter’s total revenue. AAPL is expecting the iPhone segment to grow YoY, Macs to grow YoY, and Services to grow at a double-digit rate, as it did in Q4.
For the past several years, I have indicated that Services will become a $100 billion business on its own, and the best part is that this is reoccurring revenue. In 2023, Services generated $85.2 billion in revenue, which was a 9.05% YoY increase ($7.07 billion). At this rate, Services should become a $100 billion segment in the 2025 fiscal year. I feel that the market is overlooking this, and Services should be discussed in the same regard as AWS for Amazon (AMZN) or Azure for MSFT. AAPL built the Services business from scratch and once again proved that it can innovate with the best of them. No matter what AAPL puts its resources behind, it finds a way to dominate the sector, and the coming VR/AR computing revolution could be very underestimated as to how much revenue and profit AAPL can deliver from it.
Once again, AAPL proved why so many loyal shareholders love this company. While some are focusing on the revenue decline, the real magic is in the return of capital. AAPL has returned $812.3 billion through buybacks and dividends over the past 11 years. This has allowed AAPL to repurchase 33.71% of its shares on the open market over the past decade while growing the quarterly dividend by 166.66% from $0.09 to $0.24. This is where I think people miss the true investment thesis around AAPL. Its revenue can continue to flatline or grow in the low single digits, but its profitability is so strong that it can continue to buy back shares and increase its EPS going forward while returning more capital through the dividend. When AAPL has the ability to generate additional revenue, it could act as a huge tailwind if the margins stay the same as more than 25% of every dollar is dropped to the bottom line, which could increase buybacks.
Where I see Apple going in 2024
There are 42 analysts who see AAPL’s EPS increasing by $0.36 to $6.52 in 2024. I try not to look too far out as there is a significant drop off of projections after the two-year period, but the street sees a clear runway of EPS growth for AAPL. Whenever I make an investment, I am paying the present value for a company’s future cash flow as I expect them to grow their profits. When AAPL generates more EPS, it increases its ability to buy back shares and deliver dividend increases. AAPL finished the 2023 fiscal year, generating $6.16 of EPS, and is expected to reach $7.86 in 2026, which would put its forward P/E for 2026 at 22.58. I don’t think this is that expensive, considering how profitable AAPL is and its ability to grow profits or buy back shares.
AAPL and MSFT are the two largest components of the S&P and the Nasdaq. When I look at how much I am paying for their cash flow, I am looking at their current price to the FCF over the TTM. AAPL and MSFT have very similar market caps as AAPL has a market cap of $2.76 trillion, and MSFT has a market cap of $2.62 trillion. Today, I would be paying 27.73x for AAPL’s FCF and 41.47x for MSFT’s FCF. AAPL is generating an additional $36.39 billion in FCF compared to MSFT, and when I am looking at investing in companies, I want to pay the best multiple on a company’s FCF. I feel that between AAPL’s earnings growth, the FCF history, buybacks, and the forecast for YoY growth, we could see AAPL trade at 35x its FCF in 2024. If it did, that would place its market cap at $3.48 trillion and its shares at $222.94. Considering that AAPL hit $198.23 this year, I don’t think that’s unlikely if we do get a bull market in 2024 from a Fed pivot and a more business-friendly economic environment.
I don’t enter and exit my positions, and I can’t time the market as well as I would like. When AAPL sells off, I feel that it’s a buying opportunity as AAPL is a company I want to hold for decades to come. I am not a short-term investor, and I believe that the market is overlooking how strong 2023 was for AAPL because of the top line number declining. Everybody needs to make their own decision, and nobody ever got hurt taking a profit, but I don’t think AAPL’s best days are behind them. Services continue to grow, demand for AAPL’s products is strong, international sales, new products, and VR/AR can be ongoing catalysts, and AAPL will continue buying back shares hand over fist. I think we are going to see the markets higher in 2024, and AAPL not jumping on earnings is an opportunity because if the market rallies going forward, the chances are that AAPL will participate. I believe that AAPL has the ability to reach a $3.48 billion market cap in 2024, placing its shares at around $223.

Mountain View, California (EastBayDaily) — “Next Monday, budget-minded shoppers will scour the Web for the biggest sales out there. But TrialPay’s 2-for-1 deals extend beyond Cyber Monday,” said Alex Rampell, co-founder and CEO of TrialPay. “Throughout the holiday season, shoppers can buy gifts for loved ones through TrialPay’s Premier Partners site—and get a present for themselves from name-brand companies.”
TrialPay is a revolutionary online payment system that lets shoppers get their purchase for free by completing one offer from blue-chip advertisers. By sending holiday bouquets from FTD, buying clothes from Gap, subscribing to Netflix or choosing from hundreds of other offers, shoppers can get a free product from one of 18 industry-leading merchant partners.
For example, by completing one advertising offer, shoppers can get 250 free photo prints from dotPhoto to commemorate their holiday, free licenses from software giants such as Lavasoft, Corel and McAfee, or free movie tickets from Fandango to see this season’s blockbusters—which for many Americans is as much a part of the holiday tradition as eggnog and candy canes.
“TrialPay’s Premier Partners page features offers from blue-chip advertisers and free products from the top names in software, movies, casual gaming and more—making it the place for holiday shoppers to be rewarded for their business,” adds Rampell. “It’s our way of making gift-giving more enjoyable and affordable this year.”
For the best holiday deals from TrialPay, visit our Premier Partners page: http://www.trialpay.com/shop.
TrialPay is the only payment method that increases a customer’s willingness to pay.

TrialPay entices shoppers to complete their purchase by giving a 2-for-1 with every transaction. Shoppers get their original product for free by completing one offer from blue-chip advertisers. With TrialPay, everyone wins: merchants make more sales from their current traffic, advertisers acquire new customers on a pay-for-performance basis and shoppers get a free product with every purchase.

“Surveillance” is a loaded term, but it’s on the lips of regulators who are working to restrict targeted advertising online on both sides of the Atlantic.
On Tuesday, Democratic lawmakers in the US led by Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-CA), introduced the Banning Surveillance Advertising Act (BSAA), which would outright prohibit advertisers from targeting ads to consumers with a few exceptions, including contextual targeting or broad-based geotargeting.
This isn’t Eshoo’s first rodeo. Eshoo, who represents California’s 18th Congressional District – the heart of Silicon Valley – was also a co-sponsor of the Online Privacy Act, a now-stalled bill introduced in 2019 that would require explicit consent to disclose or sell personal information and would have created GDPR-inspired user data rights.
Unsurprisingly, the ad industry isn’t a fan of the BSAA. (“This terrible bill would disenfranchise businesses that advertise on the Internet,” IAB CEO David Cohen declared in a statement).
Meanwhile, over in Brussels late on Wednesday, European lawmakers voted to support amendments that would greatly restrict behavioral advertising as part of the Digital Services Act (DSA), a piece of proposed legislation looking to tackle harmful content online and make platforms accountable for algorithmic distribution.
IAB Europe argues that the DSA could undermine existing consumer laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation, in large part because it overlaps with them.
But back in the US, although it’s unlikely that a federal privacy law will pass this year, the Banning Surveillance Advertising Act could be another not-so-baby step toward an eventual national privacy law. The question is, how strict will that law be when it finally arrives?
We polled the industry: The headwinds seem to be blowing, but is it even practical – or technically feasible – to outright ban targeted advertising?

- Lartease Tiffith, EVP of public policy, IAB
- Stephanie Vandenberg, SVP of revenue, Verve Group
- Stephanie Klimazewski, SVP of marketing, Aki Technologies

After an unprecedented year with serious financial impact, trucking companies are understandably eager to see what is to come in 2021. As the pandemic winds down, the transportation industry can get a better idea of trends that will shake things up this year.
Here are some of the most relevant trends affecting trucking companies.
Truck Industry Trends
In 2020, people were strongly encouraged to stay home and avoid shopping outside. Many malls shut their doors to lower infection rates. It’s no surprise that data shows e-commerce is on the rise across the country.
Much of the economy was negatively affected by the pandemic, but this market has only grown. Anyone looking to avoid crowded spaces could shop online or make use of the services designed to provide easy delivery.
Increases in online purchases are positive for the trucking industry, because trucks generally supply the transportation. E-commerce includes so many businesses, and it’s a significant aspect of the freight market.
Freight volumes on durable goods like home improvement items have picked up since last year, suggesting that this trend is here to stay.
Increased Reliance on Grocery Stores
There has long been a strong connection between the trucking industry and grocery stores. Trucks are a vital part of the supply chain that connects goods from shippers to everyday consumers.
Since the start of the pandemic, consumers have bought less food from restaurants and started buying more food at grocery stores. This trend suggests that transporting food and other goods to the market is going to be more important than ever.
Trucking Market Trends
As the trucking industry continues to have growth, more transportation companies are starting to use data analytics to make business decisions. This trend could change logistics for the transportation sector.
Traditionally, truck drivers plan their own paths. However, data and logistics could help trucking companies plan out more efficient routes. Businesses could also keep metrics on drivers to learn more about their driving habits and efficiency and take into account what those habits mean for the company.
Some metrics have been developed to track seatbelt wearing, speeding, and other behaviors. This can be useful for any trucking company wanting to make their operations more efficient.
Analysis of this data will be vital, of course, because the industry will need ways to make sense of this content.
Trends in the Trucking Industry
2020 destabilized many industries, but the trucking industry wasn’t badly affected. However, trucking rates have been low since 2019. To keep up with the competition, many trucking companies lowered their rates.
Growth in the trucking industry could result in changes to current freight rates. If freight demand stays up, that could be a boon to the transportation industry.
Other factors that affect pricing include freight volume, truckload capacity, and the overall market. Commercial trucking insurance is one more expense that tends to affect the cost of service.
The world is always advancing in terms of technology, and this include the trucking industry.
Machine learning refers to the ability of computers to learn from data sets and figure out patterns. This trend is already in use for GPS, song suggestions on apps, and more.
One suggested use for this technology is to reduce the number of miles that trucks are spending driving empty. It can do this by predicting the arrival times of freight, and optimizing driving plans by using data analysis.
It can also be used to forecast the amount of traffic on the road, and road conditions. These technologies have the potential to transform the logistics industry and introduce new strategies to fleet owners.
This technology provides an easy way to create reliable, detailed purchase records that are difficult to change. This method is far more reliable than anything password-encoded. A savvy company will want to include this new technology as part of its business operations.
The supply chain can benefit from Blockchain because it encourages transparency and makes it easier to trace materials. So many elements come together to encode the details of your supply chain, and the result is very secure.
Increased Cost of Fuel
The cost of fuel has always been influential on the transportation industry. It’s one of the biggest costs for most transportation companies, and there’s no easy way around it.
Fuel cost affects the logistics and cost of any trip, and prices can be different around the country. Prices are always increasing, and in the past, companies have had to accept that fact.
This could cause the cost of trucking services to increase as a result. There are some new options for companies that want to invest in options that avoid traditional fuel, though.
More Development Around the US
The US has long been known for wide open spaces, with plenty of rural areas in the middle of the country. However, continuing urbanization means that there are few truly remote areas left.
This is great news for those in the transportation industry, because the trend toward development makes it easier to comfortably move throughout the US. New, better roads give allow truckers to reach more potential customers.
Shippers in formerly remote areas are easier to get in touch with now, and people can expand their transportation businesses.
Alternative Fuel Trucks
Collectively, truck drivers drive millions of miles each year. Modern trucks have much better fuel efficiency than trucks from even a few decades ago, but they still create emissions.
Biodiesel is a potential alternative fuel option for trucks in response to increased fuel costs. It creates less air pollution, and is made up of a combination of recycled oils and animal fat. Some people look to electric trucks as another alternative to pricey fuel, though this isn’t a widespread trend just yet.
Frequently Asked Questions:
What role did technology play in transforming the trucking industry in 2021?
In 2021, technology played a crucial role in the trucking industry by improving efficiency, safety, and connectivity. Innovations such as advanced telematics, GPS tracking, electronic logging devices (ELDs), and autonomous driving technology helped streamline operations, optimize routes, and enhance communication between drivers and fleet managers.
How did the adoption of electric trucks impact the trucking industry in 2021?
The adoption of electric trucks gained momentum in 2021, driven by growing environmental concerns and government incentives. Electric trucks offered lower operating costs, reduced emissions, and quieter operation, making them an increasingly attractive option for both long-haul and urban transport applications.
What was the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the trucking industry in 2021?
The COVID-19 pandemic led to increased demand for transportation services due to the growth of e-commerce and changes in consumer behavior. The pandemic also accelerated the adoption of digital solutions, such as contactless delivery and remote work, and highlighted the importance of contingency planning and supply chain resilience in the trucking industry.
How did the driver shortage affect the trucking industry in 2021?
The driver shortage remained a significant challenge for the trucking industry in 2021, leading to increased recruiting efforts, higher driver wages, and investments in driver training and retention programs. The industry also explored new approaches, such as autonomous trucking technology, to address the ongoing shortage.
What role did data analytics play in the trucking industry in 2021?
Data analytics played an increasingly important role in the trucking industry in 2021 by helping companies make data-driven decisions to optimize operations, reduce costs, and improve safety. By analyzing data from telematics, GPS systems, and other sources, companies were able to identify trends, pinpoint inefficiencies, and implement targeted improvements to enhance their overall performance.

PORT ANGELES – The food banks of the North Olympic Peninsula are about to get a massive windfall of food and other supplies from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
A semi-truck loaded with 40,000 pounds of food and personal items is scheduled to be delivered to the Port Angeles Food Bank on Wednesday, July 19th.
Marianne Burton, Communication Director for the Church, said local Church leaders took action to make this happen after seeing the increasing challenges of the four food banks in our area – Forks, Port Angeles, Sequim, and Port Townsend. Burton says caring for the poor and needy is a foundational belief of the Church, and this is part of a program that has been in place worldwide since the 1940s.
“The Church’s welfare and self-reliance efforts started in the aftermath of World War Two. The Church has always taught self-reliance to its members. You know, store away what you can, have something for a rainy day. But then, on a global level, it’s the same way. The scriptural reference, you know, we’re told to love one another and take care of our neighbor. And that’s at the heart of this program.”
Burton says the 20 tons of food and household items consists of 20 full pallets, an entire shipping container, which will be sorted and then distributed from the Port Angeles Food Bank, chosen because of its superior capacity for storage.
She says Food Bank Directors here were given a long list of what was available at the headquarters in Utah, and were able to customize their orders according to their highest needs.
The Church’s 2022 annual global report on caring for those in need shows that this work included more than $1 billion in expenditures, 6.3 million hours volunteered and nearly 3,700 humanitarian projects in 190 countries and territories.

Yahoo’s Nate McCoy spoke to SiliconRepublic.com about the adtech industry and how it has changed over the years.
“Almost every time you see an ad on the internet, an auction is run. That auction is run by the publisher who has some space to sell. And they’re running that auction, typically, with a whole bunch of other companies,” said NateMcCoy, Yahoo’s global head of adtech engineering.
“Each of those companies represents tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of advertisers, all who could be potentially interested in getting their ad in front of your eyeballs at that moment in time.”
While he said the adtech industry has changed a lot over the years, he’s still optimistic about how it can address the needs of the consumer.
“As a person who doesn’t particularly like advertising, mostly because it’s irrelevant and not timed for my interest, I actually am a huge fan of making sure that people’s interests are kept at the centre of what we do,” he said.

New Delhi, Oct 24 (IANS) Indian exporters are optimistic about rise in demand in key markets such as the US and European Union (EU) in the coming months, although the spike in prices of raw material and an appreciating rupee continue to hurt margins.
About 64 percent of exporters' current conditions are substantially better compared to the last six months, while 74 percent expect demand to improve further in the next six months, according to a survey by Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI).
The survey was conducted during September-October among 254 exporting firms from a wide geographical and sectoral spread and having a turnover ranging from Rs.50 lakh to Rs. 22,000 crore.
The companies represent sectors like automotive, food and food processing, marine products, gems and jewellery, handicrafts, fast moving consumer goods (FMCG), textiles, metal and metal products, heavy engineering, cement, paper, pharmaceuticals and chemicals, wood and wood products and information technology (IT) software.
The survey respondents indicated that buying activity in the international market had picked up in recent times.
"Importers of gems and jewellery, handicrafts and textiles in US and EU are stocking up in the expectation of better demand in their home markets in light of the upcoming festive season," said the report from FICCI.
Among other indicators of a spike in demand were shipments of metal products to certain parts of Europe rising, sea food exports to the north American region gathering pace and an increase in house ware and furniture exports to markets of Africa and the Middle East.
FICCI said the companies too had chalked out aggressive sales strategies like appointing new distributors, building stock points in destination markets and increasing product advertisements.
However, the recent rise of the rupee vis-a-vis the US dollar, was eating into the margins of exporters, who were also struggling to manage rising input costs and intense competition from local players in the target markets.
"There is an apprehension that with the interest rate cycle moving upwards, tightening of interest rates would happen in the next few months. And as this happens, exporters will have to take steps to manage this additional costs," said the report.

SHOPPERS who cheat self-checkout tills by swapping expensive items for cheap ones could be caught by new tech replacements.
The Times has found that a new device could save supermarkets £500million in fraud.
Even though self-scanning tills are a more cost-effective alternative than tills with a cashier for supermarkets, they're leading to an increase in theft.
It's emerged that some shoppers have started swapping more expensive items for cheaper ones – like potatoes in place of champagne or onions in place of avocados.
The growing trend is now setting supermarkets back £500million a year.
Retail experts said that new technology is being tested to clamp down on thieves.

These devices will be able to tell if an item in the bagging area is not the right size, shape or colour.
The devices will also pick up on unusual activity from a shopper.
For example, most shoppers will only buy one bag of potatoes but if somebody scans six, the till will alert a member of staff.
The current systems only work on weight, so they're more easy to manipulate with simple product swaps.
Items most commonly stolen are toiletries and fresh produce.

Professor Emmeline Taylor, who specialises in retail crime at City, University of London, told the Sunday Times: "Self service has created a new breed of shoplifter.
"Rather than seeing it as problematic, they get a buzz from it or see it as funny or socially acceptable in a way that you wouldn’t if you stole a piece of cheese from Tesco.
"I heard about one customer who cut off the barcode from noodles, because they are cheap and he knew the weight of them, and glued it to their watch.
"He would scan that barcode and cover up the code on a packet of cheese or chicken of the same weight."
One survey by Myfavouritevouchercodes found that one in three people have stolen from self-checkout systems this year alone, albeit sometimes unintentionally.
Of the 2,000 people it surveyed, most blamed forgetting to bring cash, not scanning the barcode properly or struggling with the cost of living.
Theft is classed as a criminal offence by the Crown Prosecution Service. The maximum sentence for theft is seven years' custody, but that depends on what's been stolen.
It might just be a fine for shoplifting, but that could still set you back up to £200.
There are always ways to find cheap supermarket deals or pay less for food, if you find you're struggling.
For example, meal-prepping could save you up to 50% on your shopping bill if you knuckle down and come up with a routine.
There are plenty of stores, too, which understand the cost of living crisis and have plenty of deals going in order to help out – you can read a few of them here.
And thousands of households could even get a summer supermarket voucher – you can learn how to claim here.

In Florida, a brewery is doing some wonderful work for shelter dogs by creating some of the most adorable beer cans ever.
Motorworks Brewing, located in Bradington, has begun to include the face of a different shelter dog on cans in their special edition four-pack beers. Each of these shelter dogs is searching for a forever home.
And the proceeds are going to Shelter Manatee. And according to the director of sales and marketing for the company, Barry Elwonger, two of the dogs to be featured on the cans, Morton and King, have already been adopted.
“The response so far has just been incredibly overwhelming,” Elwonger said. “The community is just in love with the project, as are we. The outreach has just been fantastic, which is the point of the project – to raise that awareness. We’ve been over the moon for the last couple of days.”
Special Adoptable Dog Beer Release Benefit at this Sunday’s Yappy Hour 1-4PM!• Partnering with this month's cause,…
According to Elwonger, 200 of the four packs have been sold by the brewery. Elwonger is confident that they won’t have a problem selling the 450 four-pack target that they set. The beer selected for the promotion is the Cruiser Golden Lager.
“We’re planning on brewing a lot more of it,” Elwonger said.
Elwonger stated that Motorworks opened six years ago, and every third Sunday, Motorworks has held a dog-related event. Their specialty “Adoptable Dog” beer was a part of the “Yappy Hour” release.
“We know that we’re driving eyes toward the shelter and finding these dogs homes,” Elwonger said.
He added, “The dog love is pretty much across our entire company and is something that is near and dear to our hearts, our leadership’s hearts and has always been in mind with our ethos as a company.”
