Said Stella Teo, general manager of transport, logistics and supply chain division at Terrapinn Pte Ltd: “SCMLogistics has been recognised as the leading supply-chain and logistics conference in the industry. We have been bringing in a very comprehensive faculty of speakers from the manufacturing background who essentially reflects current supply-chain and logistics challenges.”

global and regional trends in supplychain management, as well as the impact
of mergers and acquisitions, fuels
