Vietnam ready to host record-breaking freight forwarder conference

1/18/2011 2:55:00 PM

The WCA Family of Logistic Networks is set to hold its largest annual logistics conference ever in Ho Chi Minh CityVietnam. The WCA Family Conference Week runs from February 20th to the 27th and will bring 1,600 key logistics professionals from over 160 countries to Vietnam.

 

The WCA Family has hosted the world's premier freight forwarder summit for 13 consecutive years and for the first time ever will bring the event to Vietnam. The country's rapid economic rise, combined with a burgeoning and increasingly influential logistics sector, saw Ho Chi Minh selected as the host city. The state-of-the-art Saigon Exhibition & Convention Centre will accommodate the week-long event, as tens of thousands of business meetings are conducted at 500 meeting tables and 80 booths.

 

WCA Family President, David Yokeum, said: "The conference has grown from strength-to-strength and this year will break all records in terms of delegate numbers. With such a vibrant and growing logistics sector the business opportunities both at the conference and in Vietnam itself are huge. WCA members are attending in unprecedented numbers with millions of dollars of new business created, new and lasting partnerships forged and trade lanes explored and opened. The event has proved a key driver for growth in the independent forwarding sector." 

  

 

The annual event brings together members of the WCA Family of Logistic Networks, the world's largest and most influential freight forwarder network, which now has over 3,600 member offices in 173 countries around the world. WCA Family Week brings independent international freight forwarders together to meet face-to-face among their peers to build new business relationships and strengthen existing ties.
