My full interview with Panama’s Surse Pierpoint is now posted at the Center for Ethics and Entrepreneurship’s site. The theme of the interview is Entrepreneurial Logistics in Panama. An abbreviated version was published last month in Kaizen.
Be sure to read about how conquering malaria enabled the successful effort to build the Panama Canal early in the twentieth century, how Pierpoint’s company operates in Panama’s Free Trade Zone, how the huge expansion of the Canal is changing world transportation logistics, and more. 
From the introduction: Surse Pierpoint is General Manager and shareholder in Colón [Columbus] Import-Export, a firm located in the Panama Canal Free Zone. Colón provides logistics, warehousing, and customized re-labeling services for a variety of international companies, including Procter & Gamble, DHL, Payless Shoes, Novartis, and Eli Lilly. Pierpoint is a third-generation Panamanian who received his undergraduate and graduate education in the United States before returning to Panama to pursue his business career, which now includes being President of the Free Zone Users’ Association and part of a consortium of investors developing a new marina 
on Panama’s Caribbean coast.
