CLDA Virtual Shippers Exchange

The CLDA hosted its second annual Virtual Shippers Exchange on Wednesday, March 16 from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. ET via Zoom. At this members-only* networking event attendees participated in three shipper-carrier roundtable sessions lasting 50 minutes with participants grouped by the vertical they are most interested in. Shippers were asked to explain their verticals and what they look for in a successful partnership with a carrier. Carriers were given the opportunity to introduce themselves and speak to their companies and geographic areas of service. Shippers and carriers were then encouraged to engage in discussions on how they can best partner to meet each others needs. 

Thank you to our sponsors and our Friends of CLDA contributors! Test
