5th global conference
24 - 26 September 2013 | SS Rotterdam | Rotterdam
Transparent, efficient and fair: Charting a new course for global perishable supply chain operations
The 5th edition of Cool Logistics Global - the only conference dedicated to global perishables trade - moves to Rotterdam for the first time in 2013.
Few other ports have a better claim than Rotterdam to be a magnet for handling, distributing and channeling perishable trades. Cool Logistics Global comes to the port at a significant point in its history, in the midst of the Maasvlakte 2 construction – one of the biggest container port developments in the world – and following the recent announcement of the Cool Port project, aiming to consolidate the traditionally diverse conventional and container reefer transport disciplines into a single perishables hub.
Once again, Cool Logistics Global 2013 will bring together perishable logistics and transport professionals from around the world for 360o debate on the most pressing issues of the day. Join us for a unique chance to step back, see the perishables world from diverse perspectives, and spark fresh solutions to common challenges.
NEW - In a new format, this year’s event kicks off with optional site visits on Mon 23 Sep, including a chance to see the Maasvlakte 2 development first hand, followed by the traditional Icebreaker Welcome Reception. Running from 24-25 Sep, and including the annual Networking Reception on the evening of 24 Sep, the 2-day Cool Logistics Global business conference will explore key macro-economic, trade and supply chain trends worldwide, as well as new niche opportunities. The event concludes on 26 Sep with the new-look Reefer Operations day, featuring practical case studies, technology innovation forum and round-table brainstorming sessions.
