Logistics UK's Policy Director Kevin Green responds to government's industrial strategy

“Today’s Industrial Strategy recognises the critical importance of the logistics sector in helping to deliver the government’s growth plans. Logistics is integral to all parts of the economy – indeed, nothing moves without it, and our members supply our hospitals, schools, factories, shops and homes with everything they need, everywhere, every day.

“While it is disappointing that our sector has not been named as “foundational”, we welcome the fact that an efficient logistics system has been identified as critical to boosting UK productivity.

"We will continue to engage closely with the government to drive the economy forwards, including on its new plan for freight and logistics and by pressing for inclusion in the work of the new Supply Chain Centre, the new grid Connections Accelerator Service and Growth and Skills Levy reforms.”
