Sponsorship at the 5th Annual Sino-International Freight Forwarders Conference provides opportunities to have the most visible exposure for your organization and logo.

The Conference is hosted jointly by China International Freight Forwarders Association (CIFA), under the auspices of the China Ministry of Commerce, and the World Cargo Alliance Family of Logistic Networks and its subsidiary CGLN (China Global Logistics Network).

Why sponsor?

• To make your services known and visible to up to 1,500 delegates from 150 Countries.
• To get the spotlight within the logistics industry on your company.
• To associate your company with prestigious organizations such as CIFA and WCAF / CGLN.

Sponsorship levels

There are several levels of sponsorship as follows:

Note: *  If your company is both a sponsor and has an exhibition booth package, you will only receive the highest benefit of the two for certain items.  For example, if your company has the “Advanced” Exhibition Booth package and is a “Platinum” sponsor, you will receive a 2-page advertisement in colour and not 3 pages.  The maximum number of pages for advertising we can provide to any one company regardless of the number of Optimum booth packages or sponsorship level is 2 full pages.
