Quarterly UK Logistics Insights

In an era defined by continued challenges with changing geopolitical landscapes, difficult economic conditions and disrupted supply chains, the UK logistics sector is continuing to deliver, representing 8% of the UK workforce and generating 12% of UK non-financial GVA .

In this webinar, Logistics UK will delve into key policy moments from 2024 and look at how they are shaping current and future operations as we enter the new year. Topics are expected to cover insights on developments in compliance and regulation, including the London Direct Vision Standard, decarbonisation, fuels and government policies impacting operating costs and employment.

Policy experts will also talk through the latest data findings on skills and employment in the logistics workforce and look at how global trade policy is influencing goods moved and the subsequent impact on UK operators. Speakers will deep dive into the car export industry to paint a picture of what could happen if proposed trade tariffs are imposed by the US.
