Building on last year’s inaugural TransLog events that sparked a new wave of interest in the transport and logistics potential of Malta, the first edition of the logistics managers & practitioners forum will be held on Friday, June 19.

Supported by HSBC Bank Malta, the forum will bring together for the first time industry leaders to share best practice and foster exchange of ideas.

Logistics is that part of the supply chain process that plans, implements and controls the efficient, effective flow and storage of goods, services and related information from the point of origin to the point of consumption.

“The TransLog sector in Malta offers a number of significant untapped opportunities and, if harnessed professionally and fully, it will increasingly become an even greater contributor to the Maltese economy,” said organiser Alex Borg of SSM Group.

HSBC Malta’s head of commercial banking Michel Cordina said: “Going global is increasingly critical for Maltese companies if they are to remain competitive, and logistics is one of the support backbones required to sustain this essential development for Malta. In this regard, TransLog events, such as the Logistics Forum, complement our own initiatives at HSBC. With its global connections and expertise, HSBC is uniquely positioned to help companies in Malta achieve success on the global level.”

A panel discussion featuring senior officials from EY Malta, Express Group, Malta Freeport Corporation, HSBC Commercial Banking, and from government will also take place. Parliamentary Secretary for Competitiveness and Economic Growth José Herrera will address the audience to start off the proceedings.

TransLog events are organised by Support and Supply Management Group (SSM) and marketing communications agency BPC International Ltd. More information and prior registration can be made by calling 2123 1015 or by e-mail: comm@ssmgroup.com
