GoingToMeet

The latest developments impacting ocean container logistics on main trade routes between North America’s East Coast, Asia and the rest of the world will be examined at the 2008 East Coast Maritime Conference taking place June 3 - 5 at the Hyatt Regency in Savannah, Georgia.

Formerly the China Trade and Logistics Conference, this event is produced by The Journal of Commerce Conferences and hosted by Georgia Ports Authority. The theme of this year’s program, “Shifting Trade Lanes,” reflects the changing paradigms of ocean transportation and how it is impacting sourcing and other aspects of trade.

Industry leaders will share their expertise with shippers, carriers, 3PLs and other key supply chain providers on such topics as:

* Two Canals: Which way to the East Coast?
* Alternative Sourcing from Asia
* Case Study: Integrated Logistics from China
* Will TWIC cause a harbor trucking crisis?
* Carrier-Shipper Roundtable
* Intermodal Challenge
* Inland Ports and Logistics Parks
* U.S. Export Dilemma
