19th Annual Breakbulk Conference & Exhibition

“Breakbulk 2008: Staying on Schedule”

Pressures on capacity and infrastructure caused by the surge in breakbulk and project cargo over the past two years has resulted in increased challenges for breakbulk supply chain management. Rising costs in bunker fuel and security, environmental, health and safety mandates mean that the careful management of every link in the supply chain has become more critical than ever in order to sustain profitability. In the meantime, there are some indications that cargo volume is beginning to ebb, while at the same time, new vessels are continuing to be delivered.

Join us at this conference to hear why “Staying on Schedule” has possibly become the most daunting challenge in the breakbulk cargo movement today.

When: Tuesday, October 14, 2008 12:00 AM – Thursday, October 16, 2008 5:00 PM Central Time Zone
