LONDON, March 30 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ –

Continuing on the success of last year’s conference, the 3rd Automotive
Logistics Asia conference will once again take place at The Westin Hotel,
Shanghai, China, between 15 - 16 May 2006. For two days, global senior
automotive executives will discuss the latest developments in automotive
logistics.

The event is being organised by Automotive Logistics magazine, the creators
of the Automotive Logistics Europe and Automotive Logistics Global conferences,
and will provide unparalleled networking opportunities for logistics
professionals.

Automotive Logistics Asia 2006 will give delegates the opportunity to find
out what’s what and who’s who in China. Furthermore, the conference will
provide carmakers, suppliers and LSPs with the opportunity to meet future
business partners targeting the region, and to tackle the logistics issues of
this dynamic automotive region.

The programme starts on 14 May with a pre-conference cocktail reception in
the exclusive Niche bar on the second floor of The Westin Shanghai hotel.

The first conference day on 15 May will not only cover the development of
the automotive logistics network throughout China but also implications of
shipping goods to and from the country. Another sector that will be examined is
finished vehicle logistics. Automotive Logistics Asia 2006 will include the
renowned Finished Vehicle Logistics forum. Carmakers and logistics service
providers will discuss the specific challenges and opportunities that exist in
Asia, with particular, but not exclusive, emphasis on China.

The day ends with a drinks reception and a stylish dinner cruise on the
River Huangpu. Delegates can enjoy the dramatic skyline of Shanghai at night,
enjoy superb cuisine and network with other delegates.

Sessions on the second conference day will address packaging solutions,
service parts logistics and the supplier’s supply chain, including its
management.

The conference is supported by GEFCO and Sinotrans as gold sponsors, Air
France Cargo/KLM Cargo, Linpac Materials Handling, UPS and APL Logistics as
silver sponsors and Automotive Production China as media supporter.
