A varied range of topical issues ranging from the new Incoterms to cargo crime will take the stage next Thursday when FTW Online’s first ‘Freight Suppliers’ Show’ kicks off.

The high-level speakers will complement the online exhibition in which a varied range of exhibitors - who have chosen this forum to reach their targeted freight industry market and interact with relevant buyers online - will participate.

The 10-strong speaker line-up includes Linda Bird of ITCC who will provide an overview of the new Incoterms, Pauline Kumlehn of Shepstone & Wylie who will offer perspectives from a shipping lawyer’s desk, while Caroline Rheeder of Cove Advisory discusses issues related to Customs & Excise.

Cargo crime will be handled by Richard Venter of Bridgewater Group while Gavin Kelly of the Road Freight Association (RFA) – which has partnered with FTW Online for the launch event - discusses road tax.

NOC (No Ordinary Corporation), Web Fleet, Netstar, Easy Clear, Jungheinrich and Smart Freight are the exhibitors who have signed up for the event.

It kicks off at 8.30 – and if you miss any of the conference talks, they will be available after the event.
