The Global Logistics Convention (GLC) is an annual freight logistics event organized by the Federation of East African Freight Forwarders Associations (FEAFFA). The convention has been successfully hosted in four East African Community (EAC) countries: Tanzania in 2017, Uganda in 2018, Rwanda in 2019, and Kenya in 2023.
The conference is hosted by the national member associations of the Federation. This year, the convention will be organized by the Tanzania Freight Forwarders Association (TAFFA) in partnership with FEAFFA, as well as several Tanzanian government agencies, and private sector organizations. The theme of the convention – Africa’s Supply Chain and Logistics Industry in the Age of Sustainability.
The Global Logistics Convention is envisioned as a premier international gathering that brings together over 1,000 delegates in the transport and logistics industry, experts, policymakers, regulatory authorities, port authorities, researchers, and industry stakeholders from across the globe to share their experiences and discuss, explore, and collaborate on the latest trends, challenges, and innovations in logistics and supply chain management. The upcoming convention aims to create a platform for knowledge exchange, networking, and partnerships that will drive the logistics industry forward into the future.
The Convention is also an opportunity for freight logistics professionals in the EAC region to interact with their counterparts from advanced economies and begin positioning themselves for future challenges and opportunities in the sector as the regional economy continues to grow.
