The Cooperative Logistics Network wraps up its 9th Annual Meeting blending global reach with a highly personalized networking experience

Posted on 15 May, 2026 | by Tamishra

Over 180 freight forwarders spent three days at Intercontinental Bangkok, engaging in focused one-to-one networking within a trusted and structured setting

The Cooperative Logistics Network has brought its 9th Annual Meeting to a successful close, held from 11–13 May 2026 in Bangkok. The event welcomed over 180 freight forwarders from across the globe for three days of networking, strategic exchange, and collaborative discussions. What set the meeting apart was its ability to combine scale with intimacy, creating a structured environment where members could connect and engage with ease and confidence.

The meeting highlighted the importance of direct human interaction in a fast-moving, digital industry. At its core were the one-to-one meetings, where members reviewed ongoing cooperation and explored new opportunities, building trust and clarity for long-term collaboration.

Antonio Torres, President and Founder of The Cooperative Logistics Network, commented, “Scale alone doesn’t generate value; the quality of connections does. This meeting reinforces that even at a global level, business remains personal. Every member has unique strengths and needs, and our role is to create an environment where those differences become opportunities.”

As the logistics sector continues to evolve, The Cooperative Logistics Network is focusing on strengthening its capabilities through team expansion, improved digital tools, and more secure operational frameworks. Key developments include a redesigned member directory to support faster partner selection, as well as a new payment solution currently being developed to make transactions between members more seamless and secure.

Additionally, the three-day program featured interactive Membership and FreightViewer workshops, giving attendees hands-on insight into the network’s tools and services. Led by María Serrano and Andrea Martin, the sessions went beyond FreightViewer basics to cover practical resources that support daily operations. They also highlighted continuous learning through the network’s partnership with CIFFA’s TraversEd, offering a three-level certification pathway and flexible digital courses for members.

Lastly, the conference balanced business sessions with social activities that encouraged informal interaction. A day trip to Bangkok’s landmarks, followed by the Welcome Cocktail Reception and Gala Dinner, created relaxed settings for delegates to connect more freely and build stronger personal relationships. With another successful edition completed, The Cooperative Logistics Network continues to reinforce its position as a trusted global platform for independent freight forwarders, focused on fostering long-term partnerships and supporting sustainable growth across its membership.

The meetings may be over, but the memories continue. Explore the photos from The Cooperative’s 9th Annual Meeting in Bangkok, share your favourite moments on social media, and tag us if you post your own pictures from the event. We’d love to see them.

Interview with Quattro Freight: Building Momentum Across Global Trade Lanes

Posted on 8 May, 2026 | by Tamishra

The concept of having only five to seven agents in one city is the main reason we chose The Cooperative Logistics Network. We are already members of other networks, but they tend to be crowded, with long-established relationships. With The Coop, we see an opportunity to build more exclusive partnerships that create mutual value.

Establishing the right partnerships early is key, especially in a network built on trust and collaboration. For Quattro Freight, joining The Cooperative Logistics Network is a step toward building strong, dependable relationships with their international partners. A Coop member in Mumbai and Pune, two of India’s most important logistics hubs, Quattro Freight brings both local expertise and a practical, solution-driven approach to freight forwarding. As they prepare to attend their first Annual Meeting in Bangkok, the focus is clear: to connect with the right partners and turn those first conversations into long-term collaboration.

In this interview, Vishnu Sawant, General Manager of Quattro Freight, shares insights into the company’s rapid growth, solution-driven approach to freight forwarding, and its focus on building strong, transparent partnerships within The Cooperative Logistics Network.

Q. What are your key strengths or specialties that other members should know about?

Q. Which markets, trade lanes, or industries do you focus on the most?

A. Our key markets include the USA (North and South America), Europe, and cross-country trade lanes such as South America to Vietnam, Malaysia, and China.

Interview with Seacall: Ready to Connect, Collaborate, and Grow Within The Cooperative

Posted on 10 April, 2026 | by Tamishra

“After our first month as members, we can already confirm that the reality exceeds our expectations. We value strong partnerships and believe that being part of a trusted network allows us to cooperate more closely with reliable agents worldwide”

Stepping into a global network for the first time is about making the right connections early and setting the tone for long-term collaboration. For Seacall, joining The Cooperative Logistics Network comes with a clear sense of purpose: to engage actively, build trust quickly, and turn introductions into meaningful partnerships. A Coop member in Gdynia/Gdansk, Poland, Seacall combines local expertise with a flexible, hands-on approach to freight forwarding, supported by a team that values responsiveness, reliability, and direct communication. As they prepare for their first Annual Meeting in Bangkok, their focus is firmly on meeting fellow members face-to-face, exchanging ideas, and laying the groundwork for future cooperation.

In this interview, Michał Siemiątkowski shares an inside look at the company’s services, strengths, and expectations as a first-time attendee ready to connect and contribute from day one.

Q. Could you briefly introduce your company and the main logistics services you provide?

A. Seacall is a dynamic freight forwarder from Poland, HQ in Gdynia. Our team combines years of industry experience with a commitment to high-quality service and personal dedication. We understand that logistics demands fast, efficient action, often beyond standard office hours, and we pride ourselves on being available whenever our partners need us.

We provide comprehensive logistics solutions, including ocean freight (FCL/LCL), air, road, and rail transport, alongside full customs brokerage and warehousing. The goal is to deliver flexible, cost-efficient, and transparent services. At Seacall, we don’t just handle shipments; we build long-term partnerships that last for years.

Q. What motivated your company to join The Cooperative Logistics Network?

A. Joining The Coop was a natural step for us as we continue expanding our global reach. We have followed The Coop for many years and have always been impressed by the high standards and the “personal touch” the network maintains. Now, after our first month as members, we can already confirm that the reality exceeds our expectations. We value strong partnerships and believe that being part of a trusted network allows us to cooperate more closely with reliable agents worldwide. The network provides an excellent platform to develop new opportunities, exchange knowledge and strengthen long-term relationships within the international logistics community.

Q. What are your key strengths or specialties that other members should know about?

A. In our dictionary, the word “impossible” does not exist. Our key strength is the combination of flexibility, experience and dedication of our team. We focus on tailor-made solutions rather than a “one-size-fits-all” approach. Our team is highly responsive and proactive, and handling complex logistics projects where precise communication and reliability are essential. We pride ourselves on being a partner that doesn’t just move cargo but actively solves problems.

Having been in the industry for many years, we know from experience that these meetings are where we truly connect the dots with potential partners, exchange ideas, and refresh old professional ties. There are many partners we’ve known for a long time but have never met in person, as well as new companies we are eager to get to know. We are looking forward to building those real-world relationships in Bangkok.

Q. Which markets, trade lanes, or industries do you focus on the most?

A. We are strategically located in Gdynia, which allows us to operate across both of Poland’s key port cities, Gdynia and Gdansk. Thanks to this, we can efficiently support shipments to and from Central and Eastern Europe. Our core trade lanes include Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and transatlantic routes.

However, the strong economic growth and rapid development of Poland are opening new trade lanes and opportunities for importers and exporters to expand into markets that were previously less active. This is another key reason why we joined The Cooperative Logistics Network: to provide a comprehensive service in any part of the world, thanks to the trusted and reliable partners within this network.

Q. As a first-time attendee, what are you most looking forward to at the Annual Meeting in Bangkok?

A. We strongly believe in the value of personal connection between people. During the COVID era, we were forced to set aside conferences and connect via virtual meetings. While that was a helpful alternative, it can never truly replace face-to-face interaction.

Having been in the industry for many years, we know from experience that these meetings are where we truly connect the dots with potential partners, exchange ideas, and refresh old professional ties. There are many partners we’ve known for a long time but have never met in person, as well as new companies we are eager to get to know. We are looking forward to building those real-world relationships in Bangkok.

Q. What message would you like to share with fellow members who may be meeting your team for the first time?

A. Our message is simple: We are here to build, not just to transact. To our fellow members, we want you to know that Seacall is a partner you can rely on for honesty and fast communication. We treat you not just as a customer, but as a true partner. We are excited to meet you all in Bangkok, to share our local knowledge, and to listen to your needs. Whether it’s a standard shipment or a complex logistics challenge, we approach every task with the same level of dedication. Let’s use this opportunity to turn these first meetings into strong, long-lasting partnerships. See you there!
