On Thursday, September 19 2024, Freight Forwarders Solutions (FFS) and Freight Forwarders Kenya (FFK) hosted a memorable evening at Red Ginger in Parklands, Nairobi. The intimate gathering brought together valued clients, partners, and FF Group representatives for a relaxed night of great food, drinks, and conversation. With clients and partners from Pernord Rickard Kenya, Azelis, BASF, Heineken, William Grants & Sons, KWV, SSPC, LC Waikiki, BiC, Agritecno, as well as BMC in attendance, the event offered an ideal setting to deepen relationships and share ideas.
The food at Red Ginger did not disappoint. Known for its modern blend of Asian and African flavors, the restaurant served up mouthwatering dishes—lamb chops, seafood, and spice-filled delights—that kept the conversations flowing as smoothly as the wine. But beyond the delicious fare, this gathering served a greater purpose: building trust. In a logistics industry where time is money, moments like these allow for authentic connections that go beyond the boardroom.
Networking in Logistics: Why It Matters
In East Africa, informal networking within the logistics space is not commonplace, but it is something we value deeply at FFS. We believe that face-to-face interactions over a shared bite or beverage, can create opportunities to forge fruitful partnerships. Whether brainstorming ideas for streamlining operations or laying the groundwork for future collaborations, these events help build relationships based on trust and mutual understanding—something numbers alone cannot achieve.
FFS: Not Just Another 3PL
At FFS, we are more than a traditional logistics provider. Our personalized, flexible services are tailored to meet the unique needs of each client, whether they are juggling complex inventory or navigating local distribution. Our approach focuses on building partnerships that extend beyond transactions. We see ourselves as a key ally in helping our clients grow and thrive, and these events allow us to nurture that sense of collaboration.
Looking Ahead
As we continue to grow, events like these remain central to our relationship-building strategy. A huge thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to the evening’s success. We look forward to hosting more gatherings and strengthening the connections that drive us forward!
