Think BIG...With Your Parcel Shipping & Distribution Operation
Last year alone, there were more than 8 billion packages (parcels) shipped worldwide that were delivered by more than 3,800 different carriers. Couple that with the fact that for the past two decades, the parcel delivery industry has been the fastest-growing transportation segment in the United States accounting for at least 10% of each day's gross domestic product - you get the big picture.

Understanding the size and scope of the industry is important. However, knowing how to manage your own small shipment supply chain is vital. That’s why for the past ten years so many leading shippers have sent their key transportation, logistics and warehousing personnel to PARCEL Forum. Attending is no longer considered a luxury or perk; it’s a competitive imperative.

Think BIG...With Education
For ten years we’ve had one mission and one mission only; provide parcel shipping, logistics and distribution/warehousing professionals with an all-encompassing environment that, at the end of the day, helps them ship more packages, more frequently and more cost-effectively. It’s a multi-billion dollar business that demands those involved within the small shipment supply chain to continually find new ways to do their jobs more efficiently.

To that end, we’ve developed a three day, six-track Conference Program featuring more than 50 individual sessions, workshops, panel discussions and all-day tutorials geared exclusively to what you do for a living.

Think BIG...With the Company You Keep
