Offshore Group Podcast Examines Results of AlixPartners' Near-Shoring Survey

TUCSON, Ariz., June 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The recently completed "Executive Perspectives on Near-Shoring" survey is the subject of a podcast that was recently recorded by The Offshore Group with Russell Dillon, a director at the globally recognized business consulting firm AlixPartners. During the session, Dillon provides details related to the survey's structure and methodology, as well as analyzes the findings that the exercise produced.

According to Dillon, "Factors such as rising wages and volatility of fuel costs are prompting manufacturing executives to reassess the strategies that enable them to determine how to configure their global manufacturing footprints. As was the case in 2011, Mexico was chosen as the number one location in 2012 for near-shoring by the executives in our study sample. Given present economic conditions, the U.S. came up positive in the results, as well."

Interested parties can listen to the near-shoring survey podcast, as well as view manufacturing executives' responses and results.
