The Global Project Logistics Network (GPLN) has rescheduled its 17th annual general meeting (AGM) to May 2021.

Due to the ongoing spread of Covid-19 coronavirus, GPLN has decided that its 2020 conference in Casablanca, which was scheduled to take place from May 31 - June 2, should be cancelled.

The AGM will now take place in Bremen from May 15-17 at the Dorint Park Hotel.

The network said: “We have chosen this date so that our delegates can conveniently combine our AGM with the Breakbulk Europe exhibition, which will run for the fourth consecutive year from May 18-20, 2021 at Messe Bremen."
