[ May 30, 2023   //   Chris Lewis ]

The British International Freight Association has elected a new chair and vice-chair.

Charles Hogg succeeds Rachel Morley as national chair for two-years period. He is commercial director at BIFA member company, Unsworth, and has been vice-chair of the organisation for the past two years and already chairs the Surface Policy Group.

He is joined by new vice-chair Keith Baguley, UK import manager at shipping operator Atlantic Container Line and who is BIFA’s regional chairman for Merseyside.  

Rachel Morley becomes immediate past chair for a two-year term, while Sir Peter Bottomley MP remains BIFA president.

BIFA director general Steve Parker commented: “In welcoming Charles and Keith into their new positions, I wish to express my appreciation for the contribution made by Rachel Morley over many years, and pleasure that Sir Peter has agreed to continue in office.

“Charles and Keith’s’ wide-ranging experience and senior roles in successful freight forwarding companies will ensure that BIFA and its members will benefit greatly from these new appointments.”
