Thirty five transport and logistics companies from around the world, all members of T.O.P.S. (Transport Oriented Professional Services) Logistics Network convened in Malta recently for a four-day General Assembly thath was held at the Westin Dragonara Resort. Express Trailers which forms part of this exclusive network of operators, hosted the event.

The assembly kicked off with an opening ceremony and presentations followed by welcome drinks and dinner. The rest of the event was an opportunity for all representatives to engage in one-to-one meetings for networking and business collaborations. A team-building event was also held in Mdina.

Most of the participants for this year's assembly hailed from the Far East namely Indonesia, Thailand, China, India, Pakistan, Philippines and Singapore. However other participants came from all over Europe namely France, Germany, Italy, UK and there were also participants from Brazil, the US and Australia amongst others.

"Express Trailers has been a member of the Transport Oriented Professional Services network for over 15 years and we were very proud to have hosted this event in Malta. This was an opportunity for us to promote Malta not only as a logistics and hubbing centre in the Mediterranean and Europe but also as an ideal base for transshipment between Europe and the Far East," said David Fleri Soler, Marketing and Business Development Manager at Express Trailers.

"We view our participation in this prestigious and exclusive network as a reflection of the high status that Express Trailers enjoys in the industry. Being part of this network is a big advantage for all our clients especially those who are interested in our established weekly groupage service from Shangai, Hong Kong and Singapore and additional full-container loads from China and the Far East. This network gives us access to operators in these regions with whom we can do business and who ultimately, can help us strengthen our service offer," added David Fleri Soler.
