From 1st-3rd November 2023, the key players in the airfreight, transport and logistics sector will meet for the first time at transport logistic Southeast Asia and air cargo Southeast Asia. They are looking forward to establish, maintain or expand contacts with the Southeast Asian market on the approximately 10,000 sqm of exhibition space at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre in Singapore. With 135 exhibitors from 23 countries, the exhibition space is sold out. The demand clearly shows that the Southeast Asian market is becoming increasingly important for international companies.

Due to the challenges of the past years, many companies are currently using a China+1 strategy to expand their supplier network and relocate production or branches to new locations with attractive conditions. Singapore and other Southeast Asian countries offer a good opportunity to diversify and increase the resilience of supply chains. Singapore is already an important hub for trade to and from Asia, so many of the world’s logistics service providers are already based there or are increasingly looking for local cooperation partners.
