Last Mile Fulfilment Asia (LMFAsia), a trade conference and exhibition focusing on the last mile fulfilment aspects for the logistics and eCommerce industries, will take place in Singapore on 19 and 20 March 2015 at Singapore EXPO. About 1,500 trade attendees, delegates and exhibitors from the Asian region are expected to attend the event, first of its kind focussing on last mile fulfilment issues and opportunities within Asia.
Organised by SingEx Exhibitions, a wholly-owned entity of Singapore-based SingEx Holdings, LMFAsia will bring together fulfilment centres, logistics companies, postal agencies, parcel courier companies and technology solution providers to meet with eCommerce companies and retailers to discuss and find solutions to the last mile challenges, forge new partnerships and uncover business opportunities in Asia.
"Current events in the marketplace are addressing broader issues in the general logistics sector, thereby limiting the sources and platforms that eCommerce companies and retailers can go to for last mile fulfilment issues. SingEx is well-attuned to the impetus and needs of the Asian markets, and we saw this gap as an excellent opportunity to create an event that will provide a dedicated platform for the fulfilment ecosystem," said Aloysius Arlando, CEO of SingEx Holdings.
"Keeping in mind the growth of eCommerce and the complexity of Asia’s fragmented trade and regulatory landscape, we are building up Singapore’s capabilities in e-commerce ranging from consumer insights to last mile fulfilment. LMFAsia will bring together thought leaders to exchange ideas on the issues and possible solutions for last mile fulfilment in Asia. The event will also allow brand owners to get a better understanding of how Singapore can help them connect to key markets and enhance their competitive edge in the burgeoning Asian market, especially South East Asia." Said Lee Eng Keat, Logistics and Natural Resources Director of EDB Singapore, a strategic partner of the event.
LMFAsia will comprise a two-day conference, positioned as the centrepiece of the event for all industry players to come together for exchange of ideas and knowledge sharing, and an exhibition floor which will showcase the latest innovative solutions, products and services for the fulfilment and eCommerce ecosystem. Business matching and networking sessions will also be a key feature of the event, providing the platform for new business partnerships and opportunities.
