Global forum to discuss local requirements

The Global Logistics Forum is aimed at bridging the gap between the international supply chain industry and the regional logistics sector.

Being organised by Aim, the events management division of Abu Dhabi University, the forum will also discuss subjects related to customising local requirements of infrastructure projects, and the development of the global logistic services in the Middle East. The event will be held on March 15 and 16 at the Fairmont Bab Al Bahar, Abu Dhabi.

According to the International Logistics Performance Index's cross-country comparison, the UAE ranks the highest in the region in terms of performance within the logistics and supply chain industry, marking 3.63 per cent growth during 2009. Bahrain follows in second place at 3.37 per cent, and Kuwait comes third at 3.28 per cent.
