Geneva - FIATA and Wisetech Global announce renewal for second consecutive year of partnership as digital transformation of global logistics supply chain breaks new barriers.

As FIATA continues to facilitate digital trade for its members with its Digital FBL, the need for robust and reliable partners on the digitalisation journey of the global logistics supply chain is more important than ever. For this reason, FIATA is pleased to announce the renewal of its partnership with WiseTech Global, making the eFBL available to its customers on the industry leading CargoWise platform.

The two parties share a vast global audience and have a joint goal to enable the seamless digitalisation of the logistics industry, in which collaboration with international partners is paramount. This  aims to enhance and improve the digital realm for the forwarder, providing the necessary support for the switch from paper to paperless trade.

In 2022, the two came together ahead of the launch of the FIATA Digital FBL, which has thus far been implemented by 26 FIATA Associations from around the world who can now onboard their members to distribute the paperless document, with the support of 22 software providers including WiseTech Global, which was one of the pioneering parties upon the launch.

Members and non-members attending the 2023 FIATA World Congress in Brussels between 1-3 October can expect to meet WiseTech team members in person, who look forward to answering questions and discussing the CargoWise platform with logisticians at their booth. "FIATA is thrilled to continue this partnership with Wisetech Global, which has been a leading light throughout the industry trade document digitalisation process for FIATA Members.

"The digital freight forwarder dream can become a reality thanks to the hard work and ongoing collaboration of software providers like Wisetech Global, and we always welcome the opportunity to partner with talented and impactful providers as such." shared FIATA Director General Dr Stéphane Graber.

"We look forward to further collaboration as we continue to partner on innovative projects for the benefit of FIATA's members
