The DFA team is delighted to share the highlights from our May Digital Freight Alliance Meeting, which is an essential regular gathering for our valued Members. Let’s discover valuable insights and the latest opportunities for freight forwarders, as presented at the recent meeting.

 

Vision & Strategy

 

 

The Digital Freight Alliance was started in early 2020 as a group of delivery companies using SeaRates tools. DFA aims to be the most influential group for independent freight forwarders, encompassing over 190 countries. DFA is the first choice, even with a lot of competition, because it uses new ideas and technology. It always tries to create new chances for its members.

To grasp how a bigger vision developed from this starting point, it's important to know that DFA started in DP World. DP World was created because of Dubai's culture as a place for trade. As trade restrictions have increased worldwide in the last ten years, DP World believes that the digital revolution can help drive growth.

To achieve this growth, we need to help small- and medium-sized shipping companies use digital tools so they can compete with larger companies that are already using them effectively.

 

DF Alliance & Bak Logistics
