The delegate of the Free Trade Zone, Jorge Ramos, and the president of the Spanish Federation of Freight Forwarders (FETEIA), Enric Ticó, held a meeting at the Consortium's Headquarters in which they ratified a collaboration agreement with an eye on the VII FETEIA-OLTRA Congress to be held in Cádiz from October 4 to 6.
The meeting was also attended by the general director of the Consortium, Félix Taboada, the director of FETEIA, Blanca Guitart, and the president of ATEIA in Cádiz, Juan Vidal, whose company –Cayco- has been installed in the Interior Precinct of the Free Trade Zone for years.
With this agreement, the Free Trade Zone of Cádiz intends to take an active part in the meeting of freight forwarders, show its support for the sector and promote among the attending businessmen its products, services and facilities, which are especially suitable for the activities and services offered by the Cádiz institution.
The Spanish Federation of Freight Forwarders brings together companies related to logistics and transport in any of its modalities and areas, including the customs sector.
In the new line of work initiated, the Free Trade Zone reaffirms its support for the business community in general and the freight forwarding sector in particular, a sector firmly rooted in the Consortium's facilities since its origins.
With this agreement, the Cádiz Institution will actively participate in the October Congress, consolidate its presence in the freight forwarding world and promote itself commercially in all the forums that will make up the Congress. FETEIA-OLTRA has invited to the Congress the presidents of the freight forwarders of the neighboring countries (France, Portugal, and Morocco), as well as those of the International Associations ALACAT (America), CLECAT (Europe) and FIATA (International).
Con el lema "El transitario, impulsor del comercio exterior", FETEIA reunirá a las empresas que mueven el comercio exterior español con “el objetivo de incrementar la relación entre las empresas, en un momento en el que las sinergias derivadas de este conocimiento pueden ser especialmente importantes, debatir aspectos esenciales en esta actividad tales como las novedades en materia aduanera, en los ámbitos macroeconómicos o la importancia de las infraestructuras y de cómo estos deben ser lo más eficientes posibles para el desarrollo de la carga y la logística", según palabras de su presidente.
