‘Stronger Together’ also brings a report from Core Management Logistics showcasing how value added business is changing the shape of the logistics industry. With the nations shopping habits changing, so are expectations and this report looks into how they have had to introduce a more personalised service to become an industry leader and part of their client’s business.

The programme features an interview with Richard Atkinson FCILT, Head of Engagement, CILT, who talks about the need to encourage younger generations into the industry and the innovative ideas they can bring with them.

‘Stronger Together’ premiered on 14th June at the CILT Annual Conference and Dinner at the Chesford Grange Hotel, Kenilworth, and will form part of a wider digital campaign between CILT and ITN Productions.

Kevin Richardson FCILT, Chief Executive, CILT, said: “We are extremely pleased to once again join up with ITN Productions to produce this film highlighting the importance of collaboration within our profession. The opportunities in logistics and transport are vast, but the only way we can achieve our aims and attract bright new talent is by working together. All of our sectors need to work collectively in order to develop a profession fit for the future.”
