F&L is an international network of senior business leaders focused on freight logistics across the supply chain and operating in all sectors and transport modes, based across Europe and globally. This is necessarily a diverse network including all skills, experience and views.
Everyone sits at the same table at F&L. Leaders come together for confidential discussion with a broad spectrum of leaders across other industries, sectors and geographies to network, learn, ask questions, inform themselves about the market and issues that concern them, and to exchange experiences – what’s going well, not so well and how can we prepare for what’s coming next?
“I was surrounded by people saying ‘no, that won’t work’ – we must put ourselves in a position where informed others can disagree, because that is the only way to build an effective strategy”
“The high quality of your association, members, and the thematics are in my opinion quite visionary“
Here at F&L you have the largest cargo owners on earth, the people with the solutions, and bringing that together in a dialogue is what the modern economy is about – how do you create networks, and through those conversations, how do we create solutions for the future?
The pace of change across the business landscape is accelerating and the implication and challenge for freight logistics is tremendous. We can build a better global supply chain which serves all stakeholders. But to be effective, we need to understand the holistic picture and other stakeholders.
F&L is a not-for-profit organisation set up in 1994 and we do not lobby. The market and members dictate our agenda and topics for discussion.
“Here I find the connections & the interest/support to help make things happen”
“Looking in your own business doesn’t tell you what’s around; it is my competitive advantage to know what is happening elsewhere and use that to enhance our strategy”
“These discussions open my mind and that’s when the good ideas come”
