Topic: Strengthening Shipper-Carrier Partnerships in Today’s Market
Today’s market conditions have put pressure on shippers, carriers and forwarders to control costs and streamline processes to become as efficient as possible. To do so, organizations look to become a shipper or carrier of choice. But what does being a strong, collaborative partner of choice look like? How do you grow your relationships into true strategic partnerships? Jetco CEO and The GTI Group Executive Vice President Brian Fielkow will provide important trucking industry trends and key takeaways to initiate and drive conversations that result in long-term, collaborative and successful partnerships among shippers/forwarders and truckers/freight brokers.
The Hyatt will have plenty of space for social distancing, tables will be spread far apart, and every other seat will be left vacant at each table. Every individual should use their own discretion in regard to hand-shaking, and we ask that you consider the comfort level of others. Remember, elbow bumping is the new hi-5!
