On November 28th and 29th, 2012 the key industry experts from Central and Eastern Europe and the CIS countries will meet during the annual market leading TRANSLOG Connect summit to discuss the most challenging issues that the industry is currently facing.
Increasing the flexibility of the Supply Chain in line with cost reduction is one of the key challenges to overcome in times of volatile markets and unpredictable and mainly price sensitive consumer behaviour – issues which will be addressed within the conference programme from different angles of the supply chain.
“Healthy mixture of vendors, guests and suppliers in a friendly atmosphere. Free discussions in a perfect place with a perfectly organized event.” – this is how Péter Kovács the Logistics and Supply Chain Manager of Bridgestone summarized his experience from last year’s edition.
Due to the success of the event we are pleased to welcome back the majority of the leading providers such as: DB Schenker, DSV, Raben, Duvenbeck, Norbert Dentressangle, Dachser, Agility and others.
Based on the global media promotion and the increased demand ffom the buyer side for TRANSLOG Connect we have been able to welcome several additional leading players throughout Europe such as Gebrüder Weiss, the Port of Rotterdam together with the Royal Embassy of the Netherlands, Dexion, and edy Spedition which will again guarantee the huge success of this year’s edition.
