Global Shipper Forum joins Air Cargo Forum to boost role in policy-making
TO ensure shippers' views are at the centre of discussions, the Global Shippers' Forum (GSF) is participating in TIACA's Air Cargo Forum (ACF) at Porte de Versailles in Paris this week.
GSF is taking part in key conference sessions and holding two workshops. The first in conjunction with Cargo iQ focuses on how the supply chain can build on existing airline performance work to optimise its operations. The second explores innovative ways in which air cargo performance can be enhanced by reducing red tape to cut the door-to-door air cargo chain by a half.
Both sessions will include air cargo innovators, seasoned industry experts and top international regulators to report on progress on key projects and measures underway to transform the performance of the air cargo supply chain, a statement from GSF said.
GSF will also host the Shippers' Pavilion in booth 1369, showcasing shippers' policies and facilitating contact between shippers attending the ACF and their suppliers.
"Going forward, we will strengthen our links with the air cargo industry. In that regard key shippers and GSF members will be directly contributing to TIACA's newly established Shippers' Advisory Group to help shape TIACA's air cargo policies and strategies," said GSF secretary general Chris Welsh.
"We will also meet with representatives of the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) to explore how we can strengthen shippers' influence in shaping air transport policies at the highest levels," he said.
