Expert International Speakers Include:

Optimising Your Distribution Strategy to Extend Your Network, Minimise Costs and Reduce Delivery Times

It is clear that we all need to do more for our customers, but with less resources. At the same time other key requirements come into play such as the need to develop supply chains that are more agile, flexible and resilient. This year our distinguished speakers will present new plenary sessions, run parallel workshops and hold engaging roundtables and other structured discussions on many of these important issues.

The Last (But Not Least) Mile

Many manufacturers believe that the ‘Last Mile’ of the supply chain is often the most important part; it can get your product to its destination on time or see it delayed, run as smooth as clockwork or be a logistical nightmare, and it can even save – or cost – you millions.

That’s why last year we saw over a hundred major pharmaceutical manufacturers , suppliers, wholesalers and logistics handlers gather to make sure all stakeholders get the most value out of the last mile of the supply chain.

Enhance Your Distribution Strategy

New for this year, Pharmaceutical Distribution 2011 (or Distribution 2011 as we like to call it) brings you:

  • MORE… Speakers – 18+ international supply chain industry experts present and discuss their experiences and expertise
