Get involved: SME package unveiled for Generation Logistics

TRANSPORT SECRETARY Mark Harper has described Generation Logistics, the industry-led and Government-backed initiative tasked with increasing sector awareness and finding the next generation of logistics talent, as a “vital campaign” and is urging industry to “contribute to its continued success”.

Following the successful first year of the campaign, he announced at Road Transport Expo that the Department for Transport (DfT) will continue to support the communication and education programme with a £300,000 contribution, describing it as “a down payment on the workforce of the future”.

To make it simpler for the whole industry to get behind the campaign, Generation Logistics has announced a heavily discounted sponsorship package for smaller organisations.

As the campaign moves into Year Two, companies with turnovers of less than £20m will be able to join the industry initiative as Silver sponsors for £2,000 pa. 

Gold and Silver sponsorship options are also available for larger organisations: companies looking to join Generation Logistics for Year Two can download more information from the campaign’s hub – Become a Sponsor.
