Freight Customers Group

Freight Customers Group

The Logistics Managers Group (LMG) has changed its name to the Freight Customers Group. The LMG was established 7 years ago as a special interest group of the VTA that focuses on logistics practices. Its members included logistics managers from leading firms, as well as supplier members and sponsors.

The change in name to the Freight Customers Group reflects more accurately the nature of the group and its members. The group will continue to focus on key issues including logistics practices, government interface, industrial issues and technology and warehousing trends.
