The Transportation & Logistics Working Group was established to provide an advocacy forum for EABC and other chamber members in the transportation and logistics sector (including shipping lines, airlines, freight forwarders, logistics service providers, air express operators, warehouse operators, customs agents and other companies with related services).
Thailand, with its favourable location in the ASEAN region, has seen steady growth of import and export volume. The transportation and logistics sector is important for Thailand’s economy as it enables Thailand’s industry to be competitive worldwide in their supply chains and opens future markets for Thailand, e.g. as a transportation/transhipment hub.
Objectives of the Transport and Logistics Working Group
- To be a forum for issues of interest to EABC members on Logistics, Forwarding and Customs topics
- To advocate for best practices for customs handling and transport related topics throughout Thailand.
- To bring an understanding of relevant EU policies, laws and regulations for resolution of issues and problems.
- To provide a networking and business connection in for companies seeking for logistics solution support.
