Wow! What a day! Tremendous thanks to Peter S. Goodman and the The New York Times for featuring Glo® in the new book, How The World Ran Out Of Everything, which details the collapse of the global supply chain in the midst of the pandemic. The book launched today and is currently trending as a #1 new release on Amazon (https://lnkd.in/gQYnKzs3). What started as a chance encounter turned into a trip where Peter traveled down to Mississippi, to tour our facilities, then over to Asia with my business partner, Anna Barker, and myself. The book narrates our ever-increasing struggles with a global supply chain as Peter quite literally tracks one of our shipments from an origin facility in China, to our fulfillment facilities in Mississippi, and finally to end customers. It's an eye-opening look into the tremendous efforts that people make every day to get mundane goods into the hands of each of us, and something that we all take for granted. Anna and I were sent proofs of the book to read several months ago, and I must admit, in my wildest dreams, I would have never, ever, expected a New York Times (potential) bestseller to start the first chapter with my name. I'm incredibly humbled and just hope that our small story can communicate a much larger message about some of the alarming issues that are addressed in the book. I highly recommend the read and would love to hear what you think.
