AGM 2023

FREIGHT LOUNGE WILL HOST A YEARLY GLOBAL MEETING VENUE

in which our members can build on their relations and discuss

their current business or find new opportunities together.

“I have been actively attending Network Conferences worldwide since 2002. But the recent Freight Lounge conference at Phuket Thailand ranks amongst the best so far because it provided a wonderful relaxed atmosphere to connect with all the members present and discuss business opportunities with fellow members. So much so that I have managed to know almost everyone personally. I am sure the fellow members will find suitable avenues for business growth amongst each and everyone.”

– Venugopal G Reddy – AIRSEA Forwarders India Private Ltd

“Our 2022 FL annual meeting was planned and executed perfectly. Sure, having the meeting space and event’s details sorted are an obvious expectation. Having all of our FL members and prospective members arrive and participate with such an immediate, open, honest, and friendly approach was truly special. The partnerships formed, and the impact on each of our companies will grow because of the responsiveness and support that FL has created within our network.”

– Marc Sullivan – Global Trade & Customs, USA

“Thank you very much for organizing a very personalized conference and being there with all the members at every moment. You guys have really shown the care and interest you have in members interacting and working together. The highlight of the conference I believe was the boat trip. It was a memorable one and I will remember it for the rest of my life.”

– Azaam Ahamed – Future Logistics, Sri Lanka

“After 2 years of Covid, the management of FL again managed to organize a bigger and better event than the first time.
In my opinion, the FL events are one of the best in the market.
Happy to have met our valuable partners and to have established better and new relations with the old and new members at the one-ones and during the event.
Can’t wait for the next one, or can we do it each month? 😉”

– Rini Verhoef – C-Log Worldwide bv, Netherlands

“Freight Lounge AMG 2022 was a great event. It was very useful to exchange experience and enlarge the network combining business with fun.”

– Chiara Marchesin – Unitex Int’l Forwarding ltd. Hong Kong

“After three years apart it was great to meet old acquaintances and make new friends. The spirit between this group of partners is amongst the best we have encountered. A great AGM well set up with lots of bonding over fun events and meetings.”

– David Aherne – Across the Ocean Shipping Pty Ltd, Australia

“Great time, great meeting, great opportunities and great to meet all the Freight Lounge members. See you next meeting, I won’t miss it!”

– Nutthanan Sungkaew – Laem Chabang Intertrans Co. Ltd, Thailand

“The Freight Lounge AGM in Phuket 2022 was a roaring success. Professionally run, great people, great location and fantastic networking opportunities. The highlight for me was the Sunday day boat trip where everybody left the pressures of the freight forwarding world behind for a day of laughter, sightseeing and music. I will be back. 

Jason Keane – JKF International Limited, New Zealand

“In 2019 I participated in the first AGM. After 3 years, I came to AGM 2022 and this event is progressing very well. This proves the seriousness of the management in efforts to improve the quality of this network. The closeness and intimacy of each member in it are extraordinary. I am very grateful to have met this extraordinary family. Hopefully, we can meet again at the next AGM.”

– Romanda LEO Agusta Masdiko – PT. Januardi Logistik, Indonesia

“It was the first time event I attended with FL AGM last September and it was an amazing experience for me. Business-wise I met active partners who are keen to make the event successful and on the other hand, it was full of joy and entertainment. Great efforts Freight Lounge team, much appreciated”

All the best wishes for the next events dear.”

– Nermeen Said – Dispatch Global Logistics, Egypt

“We joined the network just before the pandemic started. Despite the setbacks going all around globally, we have seen huge support from the network. Online meetings gave us an opportunity to meet the people we’re cooperating with but the AGM in Phuket was a great chance to know the people in real. I believe this is what we all have missed so much. The organisation was superb and definitely the best I have ever attended. Hope to meet you all next time.”

– Asli Ergun – DSL International Forwarding Co. Ltd, Turkey

“I attended my first Freight Lounge meeting in September 2022 in Phuket,  I knew nothing about how these meetings worked and did not know what to expect, Auke and Paul were extremely welcoming and ran a very professional and wonderful meeting they went above and beyond to make sure that it was a very successful meeting,   I met a lot of fabulous people and formed wonderful relationships both workwise and personal.”

– Caralynne Melle – Airmark Ocean & Air Logistics, Australia

DA NANG: THE CITY OF BRIDGES AND THE TAILOR CAPITAL OF THE WORLD ! 

Da Nang is a coastal city with a 60-km long shoreline. With smooth and sandy beaches running across the coast, Da Nang beach is voted by Forbes (U.S.) to be 1 of 6 most beautiful beaches in the world. Emerge yourself in the sapphire water, play with the waves or just sunbathe on the fine beach and you will get to relax and unwind after a hard working day. What’s more, a selection of beach games are available on your demand: canoing, parasailing, jet-skiing, banana boats, scuba-diving, …

Not only is the city famous for its beaches, Da Nang’s charm also lays in its geographical position: leaning against the majestic Truong Son mountains (or the Annamite Range), as well as having Son Tra Peninsula embracing the sea. Hai Van Pass, shaped by this ideal geographical feature is praised ‘The most marvelous scenery of all’ for having an amazing view overlooking the sea, besides the notorious dangerous curves. Since the opening of Hai Van tunnel (Viet Nam’s longest road tunnel) traffic flow and safety have improved. From then on, Hai Van Pass has become the destination to nature-loving explorers and motorists who dare to challenge themselves on these notorious routes.

Da Nang city is also home to Ba Na Hills – a well-marketed brand of Da Nang tourism. Explored and constructed since the French colonization, Ba Na Hills has increasingly become a popular tourist attraction with 2 Guiness World Records holder cable cars and the greatest indoor amusement complex in South East Asia – Fantasy Park (Sun World Danang Wonders).

From Ba Na Hills – the western part of the city , visitors can turn to explore Son Tra Peninsula in the North East – a jungle in the middle of the city with a rich vegetation, fauna and flora; along the unspoiled rough and rocky coast. Heading towards South East, you will be caught by the renowned Marble Mountains where scenic beauty, culture and religion are preserved.

Not only blessed by countless beautiful sceneries, Da Nang is said to be ‘worth-living’ due to its refreshing and peaceful environment. Used to lead the country in terms of economic advancement, Da Nang at the same time keeps its safety and security level under control, resolves states of homelessness and vagabonds, does away with drugs and reduces traffic jams to minimal degree.

Therefore, visitors can rest assured and tour the city in the most comfortable and mind-easing position. Coming to Da Nang, tourists will satisfy their appetite with countless local specialties such as Quang noodles, steamed rice pancake rolls with sliced boiled pork, fresh seafood,… in over 150 high-quality and standard restaurants.

At present, a wide range of recreation activities are taking place all around the city, predominantly at Bach Dang street. Take a walk along the street to get a feel of Da Nang by night, check out traditional art performances or engage ourself in nightlife entertainment outlets.
