Logistics UK calls for Minister of Supply Chain

[ May 23, 2024   //   ]

Logistics UK is urging all political parties to include its call for the appointment of a Minister for Logistics and Supply Chain in the next government in their election manifestos,

Chief executive David Wells said that investment and growth in the logistics industry would bring dividends for the whole economy.

Logistics UK launched a new manifesto earlier this year alongside new survey data showing fewer than a third of adults think the government is doing enough to support the sector. Wells added that a cross-Whitehall Logistics Productivity Forum, led by a dedicated logistics and supply chain government minister, would ensure that benefits from our sector can be delivered to the whole economy.
