Representing the Distribution Industry During Crisis

At NAW, advocating for our members and representing the distribution industry is at the heart of everything we do—especially during times of crisis. As the voice of wholesaler-distributors across the nation, we led efforts to keep our members informed and engaged during the recent port strike, providing timely updates, critical analysis, and actionable insights to help our members navigate unprecedented disruptions. 

Key Actions and Support Provided: 

  • Amplifying Member Voices: We coordinated conversations with national media to advocate for a quick resolution that would minimize disruption and safeguard business operations. 
  • Real-Time Updates: Throughout the port strike, NAW provided real-time information and analysis on shifting conditions to ensure our members were always a step ahead. 
  • Guidance and Insights: Leveraging our deep industry knowledge and direct connections with policymakers, we offered members specific strategies to adjust and adapt their operations in response to the crisis. 

As the distribution industry’s go-to resource during crises, we’re proud to be a steadfast partner when our members need us most. With potential strikes looming in January, NAW stands ready to act again—working around the clock to represent your interests, communicate the latest developments, and provide the information you need to make informed decisions.
