To jointly celebrate its tenth birthday and to enhance the scope of its training and education capabilities, CEVA Logistics, one of the world’s largest supply chain management companies, has launched its newly expanded European Centre of Logistics Excellence in the presence of key customers and suppliers.

Guests also had the opportunity to tour the refreshed Centre which includes a live ‘final mile’ demonstration, an interactive warehouse area and presentations on all aspects of a supply chain.  Following the launch, guests joined CEVA’s UK, Ireland and Nordics Board for a BBQ lunch to celebrate the companies tenth birthday and to toast to the next decade of partnerships.
