Singapore Logistics Association – Executive, Corporate Services

Established as the Singapore Freight Forwarders Association in 1973, the association was renamed Singapore Logistics Association (SLA) in 1999 to reflect the growth and wide-ranging activities of its members.

Today, SLA has close to 700 members, predominantly logistics enterprises, and stays anchored in its mission to support and sustain a vibrant and thriving ecosystem for the logistics sector through active industry participation and collaborations with both local and international logistics partners. Offering a wide range of targeted programmes and initiatives to help enterprises be future ready, SLA also constantly reviews and explores forward-looking initiatives to help logistics companies implement business transformation improvements to emerge stronger and ahead of competition.

To nurture a pipeline of global and future ready logistics talents for the industry, The Logistics Academy, a wholly owned subsidiary training arm of SLA was incorporated in 2010 to provide human capital and skills development courses to empower and deepen the skills of the workforce for the logistics sector.
