Expecting the Unexpected with Larry Combs

Around the Barrel with Jack Daniel's

With a supply chain as complex as Jack Daniel’s, the opportunities for things to go wrong are plenty. Add in the fact that you must anticipate some of those challenges years before they happen, and you’re left wondering how any whiskey makes it to the shelf, particularly one as popular as Jack Daniel’s. In this episode, Larry Combs, Senior Vice President and General Manager for the Jack Daniel’s Global Supply Chain, joins host Lucas Hendrickson to talk about how he and his team work to anticipate and adapt to curveballs like the COVID-19 pandemic to keep the whiskey flowing and our many team members employed.
