Opportunities beckon every step of the way for Malta to become a regional hub for transport and logistics. Stakeholders need to continue coming together to integrate their efforts, as nearly all the elements, such as a geo-location, investment in equipment and technology and adherence to high standards of delivery are in place.

Two areas that require immediate further investment are upgrading human resources and training more people, specifically in logistics. These are some of the salient points resulting from the first Logistics Managers and Practitioners Forum.

Various issues and challenges were raised by stakeholders, including the operators, the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport, Malta, government and HSBC Malta. There was consensus that efforts must remain focused on enhancing collaboration between all stakeholders.

Supported by HSBC Malta’s commercial banking business line, the forum was held on the sidelines of Malta’s first-ever transport and logistics awards, the Translog Awards. TransLog events are organised by Support and Supply Management Group and marketing communications agency BPC International.
