Matt Horine on Veryable's on-demand labor app for manufacturing and warehousing

Matt is Head of Reindustrialization at Veryable. We featured them in our early days, when the company's CEO, Mike Kinder, joined us for our Episode 11.

Now, with reindustrialization happening in real time, Matt is here to tell how Veryable is uniquely suited to helping supply chain companies with their labor needs as they grapple with the volatility that new opportunities bring.

Matt is also the host of Veryable's podcast, US Manufacturing Today. Our host Jim Vinoski is appearing with him the same day this show first airs! See the link for his show at the end of these notes.

Here are some of the highlights.
