In a move reflecting the accelerating adoption of advanced technologies to reduce operational costs, Procter & Gamble has expanded its logistics partnership with SemiCab India. This expansion resulted in a 32% increase in logistics volumes by implementing an AI-driven model designed to optimize supply chain efficiency. The company aims to leverage the success of this Indian pilot for potential future rollouts across US and European markets.
