A different kind of green for the logistics and supply chain industries: St. Patrick’s Day [Infographic]

St. Patrick’s Day by the numbers.

Between 1820 and 1930, nearly 4.5 million Irish immigrants made America their home. They brought with them their love for their home country and thus began a centuries-long annual celebration of all things Irish in America.

Today more than 122 million Americans celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day, making the holiday lucky for logistics and supply chain companies. From the delivery of 13 million pints of Guinness beer to pubs across the country to the packaging and transporting of holiday-themed parade and party supplies, it’s clear that green can lead to gold for these companies.
