as everywartime quartermasterknows, it is only when things go really wrong that you get noticed—or shot.the same is truein the logistics business. that is why it made news recently that dave clark, amazon’s former logistician-in-chief, left th

e seattle-based online giant to become ceo of flexport, a shipping-software company.
每个战时军需官都晓得,只需当情况变得非常糟糕的时分,他才会被人留心到——或许被拉去枪决。在物流作业里也是如此。因而迩来一条新闻致使了商场重视:亚马逊前物流总管戴夫·克拉克脱离了这家总部位于西雅图的网络巨子,出任航运软件公司飞协博的实施总裁。
his departure comes just as amazon isdelugedwith overcapacity in its vast warehousing and distribution business, which he captained during most of his 23 years at the firm. some wondered whether he had faced the firingsquad.
在他离任之时,亚马逊巨大的仓储和配送事务正为产能过剩所困,而在他任职的23年里,大有些时刻都是担任这块事务。有些人不由置疑他是不是曾被押上刑场(被裁撤)。
in fact mr clark’s move looks to have been a voluntary one—with a hint ofmasochism. after doing a job that would havefinished offmost people, namelyblitzkriegingthrough the retail landscape tobombardthe world with amazon packages, he now wants toprop upfirms battling to get to grips with global supply chains.in doing so, mr clark leaves behind him a severe headache for andy jassy, amazon’s boss.
实际上,克拉克此举大约是出于自愿,而且还带有一丝自虐的意味。他以往的劳绩足以秒杀大大都人——用霹雳战扩展零售业地图,让亚马逊的包裹轰炸全球各地。而他如今又要去撑持那些与全球供给链窘境作战的公司。但这样一来,克拉克把一个非常头疼的疑问留给了亚马逊的老板安迪·贾西。
the titan of e-commerce is not just overbuilt and overstaffed. for the first time in its 28-year history it isin the midst ofan inflationary whirlwind, which is playing havoc with its ability to predict the future. the situation is bad enough in amazon’s american heartland. it is worse in its operations elsewhere. that makes it harder to fix.
这家电商巨子不只是现已扩展过度、人员过剩。树立28年来,这也是它头一次处于通胀旋风之中,而通胀严峻影响了它猜测将来的才能。亚马逊在其中心商场美国的情况恰当不妙。但其他当地还要更糟。这使得疑问愈加扎手。
when looking at amazon, most attention is paid to its north american retail business—mainly the united states, but also canada and mexico. it accounts for the vast bulk of sales, almost 60% in the first quarter. thehinterland, which is to say its international business, includes dozens of countries, from japan to india, parts of western europe and elsewhere, that punch well below their weight. strange as it sounds to non-americans, collectively they contribute just 25% of amazon’s overall sales.
调查亚马逊时,我们最重视的是北美洲的零售事务——首要是美国,但也包括加拿大和墨西哥。北美洲占有了绝大大都的出售比例,第一季度近60%来自于此。翻译划线句,长按文末小程序码打卡,答案下期发布~尽管对非美国人来说,这听起来很新鲜,但它们加起来只为亚马逊全体出售额奉献了25%。
