摘要：	THE ROLE OF THE FINAL-MILE market and where it fits in to the overall logistics landscape were key themes at the "Final-Mile Issues and Opportunities" session at the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP) EDGE conference in Nashville. Panelists on the session included: Corry Dickerson, president, Dicker-son Transportation Services LLC; Bill McCoy, director, last-mile logistics, Elec-trolux; and Pete Ziegler, director of final-mile services, Averitt Express. The session was moderated by Logistics Management. A key theme of the session was how the final-mile market is defined, as it's a sector that often means different things to different industry stakeholders and verticals. Dickerson explained that from his company's perspective, it tends to focus more on what he described as "big and bulky moves" in the form of two-man, white-glove types of deliveries. He added that's different in that a fair amount of moves in the final-mile segment are small package deliveries, which he said tend to be very complex.
