A Historic Collaboration to Transform African Logistics For the first time ever, the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT) branches in South Africa and Zimbabwe are joining forces to host a groundbreaking conference at Futuroad Expo 2024. This landmark event will address the critical challenges facing Sub-Saharan Africa's transport and logistics sector. The conference will delve into building and improving infrastructure, harmonising complex regulations across borders, whilst exploring strategies to enhance efficiency and reduce costs. Safety will also be a core focus, with discussions on protecting both people and cargo. Additionally, the conference will examine the vital role of skills development in building a competent workforce and the transformative power of technology in modernising the industry. By addressing these key pillars, the conference aims to equip attendees with the knowledge and insights needed to navigate the complexities of the African logistics sector and contribute to its growth. Africa's logistics sector faces significant hurdles. High costs, inadequate infrastructure, complex regulations, and limited technology adoption hinder the efficient movement of goods across the continent. These challenges significantly impact businesses and impede economic growth. However, amidst these challenges lie opportunities. By fostering collaboration, sharing best practices, and investing in infrastructure and technology, Africa can unlock its logistics potential. Join us as we pave the way for a more efficient, sustainable, and integrated African logistics landscape.
