The
concept and application of port centric logistics is gathering
pace throughout Europe and has the potential to benefit all
participants in the supply chain including primary retailers,
manufacturers and distributors, deepsea and shortsea ship
operators, port owners, logistics providers and other related
service operators.
This
conference brings together the relevant supply chain partners
to examine, debate and learn how effective port centric logistics
solutions are changing current distribution systems, improving
effectiveness and generating competitive advantage. In a carbon
constrained society, the port centric model can make a significant
contribution to supply chain improvements.
Expert
speakers from retail, logistics, ports, carriers and consulting
will share their knowledge and experiences, and examine trends
in maritime trade flows, economic impact, barriers and opportunities,
development and planning challenges, productivity benefits,
improved customer service, equipment, technology and systems
requirements. And, most importantly, port centric case studies
and first-hand sector experience will be shared from, amongst
others, the fast-moving food & non-food industries, manufacturing
and specialised/bulk cargoes.
The
conference agenda will be developed during the summer. If
