A sophisticated logistics system is urgently needed to reinforce and support the rising transport infrastructure on the continent, where it is predicted that there will be more than half a billion e-commerce consumers over the next three years.
The pandemic accelerated the development of the global e-commerce business and gave rise to several phenomena that have an impact on the logistics sector. Retailers and logistics providers are working hard to build and improve their distribution strategies in order to reduce inefficiencies and keep stock closer to customers. Consumers not only expect faster delivery times, but the expenses of serving the last mile are also rising.
Global event company dmg events has announced the debut of Logistics Evolution Africa, its newest trade show, with the main objective of bringing together corporate logistics teams and service suppliers from all areas of the African logistics supply chain. Leading industry event producer dmg events has a long history of success, having produced over 80 trade exhibitions in 25 countries that attracted more than 425,000 attendees.
An innovative platform called Logistics Evolution Africa brings together decision-makers, innovators, and public and private stakeholders from important sectors like mining, retail, automotive, logistics, health, and retail. It coincides with Transport Evolution Africa Forum & Expo, the only event in Africa that brings together the region’s port, road, and rail authorities under one roof, and runs from September 20–23, 2023, at the Inkosi Albert Luthli ICC Complex in Durban, South Africa.
