Combined Logistics Networks has signed up with the latest event in the transportation logistics industry that unites the independent players of the freight forwarding community - THE FREIGHT SUMMIT, to be held at the Venetian Macao~Resort~Hotel on September 15-19, 2008.

Supported by more than 20 freight alliances and associations, The Freight Summit provides a platform for cross-alliance networking that enables you to meet your CLN partners and make fresh contacts with forwarders from other circles - at one time and venue.

The Freight Summit will be catering purely to the independent freight forwarders from all over the world for face-to-face networking to explore new business opportunities. It is the first face-to-face type conference not exclusive to any freight alliances, and open to all freight forwarders with or without association to any network - the expected total attendance is 600 forwarders from all over the world.

CLN recently concluded another successful annual meeting in KUL on May 20-24, 2008. The 6th conference of the group was designed to provide a more intimate environment for the members to spend quality time with each other. It is the group's first year to purely focus on members and only serious observers that have clear intentions to join the network were invited. CLN highly believes that with more intimate relationships and partnerships, the networks are capable in developing more opportunities.

To achieve SCN's goal to provide all members the capability to communicate and process orders under 1 communications and track and trace software, Combined Logistics Networks signed off a service level agreement with a software company based in Australia named Pangaea effective April 1, 2006.

This will bring us in par with the capabilities of global outfits that are currently miles ahead of us in the field of IT, and have eaten successfully into the independent forwarders market successfully. read more
