GSF to hold practical workshops at Air Cargo Forum in October

THE Global Shippers' Forum (GSF) is to stage a series of practical workshops at the three-day Air Cargo Forum (ACF), from October 26-28th in Paris.

GSF will host a pavilion, and GSF members will benefit from access to The International Air Cargo Association's (TIACA's) one-to-one meeting scheduler, CargoLinX, to make the most of their time at the show, according to the Materials Handling World magazine of Mirfield, Yorkshire.



CargoLinX will allow visitors to schedule up to thirty 25-minute meetings with 45 leading global air cargo companies, weeks in advance of the event.



Said GSF secretary general Chris Welsh: "We greatly value our cooperation with TIACA and the ACF is an ideal opportunity for our members to network with suppliers and peers, and take part in practical workshops which will help them run more efficient supply chains."



ACF speakers at the event include head of transportation and customs for CHANEL Fragrances and Beaute Pascal Meyer, and manager supply chain and general affairs, Tosoh Corporation, Lars J T Droog, taking part in a discussion on new manufacturing trends among other sessions.



The forum will also include discussions on e-business, multimodal challenges, and the cargo hub of the future, as well as practical workshops on the new EU Customs rules and the latest security regulations.



Said TIACA secretary general Doug Brittin: "This year's seminar and workshop series will tackle trends affecting our industry and give up-to-date information on regulations affecting us all."



Exhibitors at this year's ACF will include Atlas Air, Brussels Airport, and Chapman Freeborn, as well as Emirates SkyCargo, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Heavyweight Air Express and Forward Air.
