How It's Sourced: Fake vs. Real Christmas Trees (The Global Sourcing War)
How does a seasonal item like a Christmas tree become a massive global sourcing project? This week on How It's Sourced, Alan and Tom dissect the two very different supply chains behind your holiday centerpiece: real vs. artificial trees. They reveal the shocking cost factors, including the risk profile of growing a tree for 10-12 years and the incredible logistics required to move massive artificial trees from China. Discover the biggest producers, the history of tree auctions (including a possible $30,000 tree!), and why the choice between real and fake is really a choice between two entirely separate industries. Get a deeper appreciation for the supply chain complexity behind one of the greatest global holiday traditions.
