The Wuhan International Logistics Fair is a major logistics and supply chain management conference held annually in China by China Modern Logistics News, the trade publication of the China Federation of Logistics and Procurement, which is the exclusive Central Government-level logistics association in China. The event provides an open platform for Chinese and foreign companies to present their technologies and services to effectively collaborate and innovate in logistics, procurement and supply chain management.

"Wuhan is represented by a diverse blend of industries and is a strategic, central hub for logistics in China," said Chris Woodward, Vice President and Managing Director of China for Ryder.
