The Evolving Project Forwarding Landscape: Consolidation and Diversification in Project Logistics

Thursday, 25 April

11:15 am - 12:00 pm (CST) / 25/apr/2024 04:15 pm - 25/apr/2024 05:00 pm

Experienced project forwarders have joined cargo owners’ logistics teams, existing forwarding companies, and even ocean carriers who sense an opening and are positioning themselves in the forwarding space. What does this evolution mean for cargo owners, especially those less familiar with the world of breakbulk and project cargo, as moving this cargo becomes more complicated in an unpredictable, highly changeable global business environment?
