U-Freight All Set for Annual Conference

Hong Kong, Hong Kong S.A.R., October 18, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Comments the company’s CEO, Simon Wong: “It will be a valuable opportunity to let all member companies within the U-Freight Group exchange the latest market information and strengthen corporate links."

With question marks still remaining about the level of recovery of the global economy, around 150 delegates from UFL’s worldwide office and agency network, including the United States, Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, Australia and New Zealand, as well as all over Asia, will gather in Singapore to review progress and plan strategy for the year ahead.

With an ever-increasing interest in oceanfreight forwarding, through the group’s U-Ocean brand, conference delegates will be examining the ongoing impact of such things as slow steaming policies and ballast water surcharges being deployed by liner shipping companies.

Since the late 1960s, the U-Freight Group has developed into one of the world’s leading independent providers of international freight forwarding and logistics services. Through its international network of subsidiary companies and exclusive agents, the company offers the full range of air and seafreight services and is in an especially strong position to serve the needs of shippers moving goods to, from and between China, Japan and the ASEAN countries.

Adds Wong: “Our offices and exclusive agents all have local expertise which, when added to the network’s international capabilities, makes an unbeatable combination and gives us confidence when we plan future growth at our annual conferences.”
