Vicenda finalizes agreement to acquire Logistics News

For 40 years, Logistics News has been the leading publication in South Africa for the logistics & supply chain industry.  With a strong focus on reader-value, the publication has consistently offered relevant insights and valuable content for local supply chain professionals.

Under the stewardship of the late Dianne Holton, the publication grew in strength over the last three decades - in parallel with the industry it supported. Diane was also instrumental in running and elevating the Logistics Achiever Awards to become the premiere awards function for the supply chain industry. The awards are now hosted by GIBS.

After a period of working in partnership with Logistics News, Vicenda is pleased to announce the formal acquisition of Logistics News. Karl Murray, Managing Director of Vicenda shared, ”Logistics News is a respected brand and a perfect fit to compliment the range of services that Vicenda currently delivers to the industry. We plan to expand on the range of content currently published in Logistics News, as well as introduce exciting new platforms to engage with the industry through a variety of media.”

Both brands have an established reach into the industry resulting in a combined subscriber database of over 21 000 industry professionals.

Since 2005, Vicenda has provided local supply chain practitioners with industry events to keep them informed and up to date with the latest industry trends. Their workshops, summits and breakfast events have consistently brought together respected industry experts and seasoned practitioners to share their knowledge, experience and insight.

To celebrate a new era in the publication, our new team is working feverishly and a fresh bumper issue will be shared with the industry in the next 2 weeks.

We look forward to continuing to share content that delivers value to all our subscribers. All Logistics News issues, articles, news and industry events will in future be shared with the industry through update@logisticsnews.co.za
