very exciting to see the event grow and we are proud to have been part of the
journey.”

 

Marcus Meissner

Managing Partner – Middle East, Africa & Asia

Camelot Management Consultants

“Supply chain collaboration has been changing over the last few years and these
sorts of events are very useful for people to learn what other industries and
geographies are doing. I am sure we will see more conferences focused on this in
the future.”

 

John Calder

“We have seen an amazing amount of speakers and topics that are very interesting

“The 9th GPCA Supply Chain Conference was a great mix of inspiring presentations
and practical case studies in the context of transforming the already very
strong supply chain of the GCC. The level of knowledge, lively interaction and
well-prepared content add real value for those attending.”

 

Manos Raptopoulos

COO – South Europe, Middle East and Africa

“Gulf SQAS, as a common platform for continuous improvement in all areas of
Health, Safety, Security, Environment and Quality (HSSEQ), is something that we
really do believe in. Our GCC companies have proven that best-practice sharing
is a strong element of our development, and I would make an appeal to all
logistics service providers and all manufacturers to make good use of it because
it really is a very powerful tool.”

improve the agility and efficiency of supply chain operations across the region
and encourage participants to adopt best practices in supply chain
digitalization to address future challenges.”
