Long Ignored International Logistics Need Finally Filled

The average company devotes 64% of its budget to logistics expenditures, yet a scarcity of logistics training has until now left U.S. companies searching for comprehensive training solutions in international logistics planning.

Hallandale Beach, Florida October 6, 2005 -- Millions of jobs in the United States depend on international trade and at long last executives and business owners finally have access to quality, affordable and practical international logistics training.

On November 15th and 16th, in Ft. Lauderdale, FL., Logistics Coach™ will kick off the first of many workshops geared toward ensuring that U.S. companies can compete in the ever challenging arena of international logistics. This intensive 2 day program is tailored specifically for logistics and transportation managers, business owners, export management companies and logistics service providers.

For years, shippers, freight forwarders, exporters, manufacturers, importers and export management companies have been ill equipped to grow their businesses as well as train their employees in a comprehensive manner. In many companies the “sink or swim” mentality has been the training method of choice.

Logistics Coach™, a division of minority owned and certified South Florida based Global Solutions & Services, Inc., was created to address the fact that although the average company does devote 64% of its budget to logistics expenditures and may spend hundreds of thousands of dollars a year on new ways to save money, they spend less than 2% of payroll on employee training.

Logistics Coach’s™ mission is to fill the need for practical yet affordable logistics training. The enthusiastic response generated at international seminars presented by founder Cynthia Cabrera, as well as seminars presented by Cynthia and other industry experts which were sponsored by Broward County, Florida, gave clear indication that the demand for these services had to be fulfilled.

“Practical Logistics: Strategies for Success” will be presented on November 15th and 16th, 2005 at the Greater Ft. Lauderdale Chamber of Commerce. Businesses interested in finally receiving the training they need can contact 954-364-7607 for information and registration.
