This year’s Premier Cargo Alliance (PCA) conference took place in the beautiful city of Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE). Dubai is also aptly referred to as the “City of Gold” because of its stunning growth from a sleepy Gulf port to a world-famous business crossroads in the space of a single generation.
Universal Logistics was well represented at this year’s three-day event by Paul Glionna, Vice President of Systems Development & Operations, and John Leis, Director of Client Relations.
During the 3-day conference, Paul and John conducted one-on-one meetings with over 30 people from 26 different forwarding companies representing 38 countries from around the globe. “Given the current geopolitical landscape and its impact on international trade, meeting in person with our freight forwarding agent partners from all corners of the world gives us a unique understanding and perspective of local markets and conditions impacting global trade. Our goal is to use these valuable insights to enhance our operations and to share with our clients,” says Paul Glionna.
