The final session includes an update on new developments, economic growth and opportunities in metro Atlanta, Savanna, Georgia’s other metro areas and rural Georgia.
The day concludes with a networking reception in the exhibitor booth area. Attendees will have time to visit the many exhibitors who offer valuable services to the logistics industry in Georgia. Visit with a2b Fulfillment personnel, who will be happy to demonstrate how a2b Fulfillment can be part of a logistics program in Georgia. The networking event is an excellent opportunity to make strategic relationships.
Day 2 opens with breakfast and the annual address by Georgia’s Governor. This is followed by a robust roundtable of experts discussing hot topics in all of Georgia’s transportation modes: trucking, rail, air and ocean.
