MARCH Logistics /  Training Courses

The simplest way to have more control and feel more confident about your international movements is to take advantage of a MARCH Logistics training course. If you’re like most New Zealand SME companies your forwarding and freight arrangements are probably taken care of by yourself or an employee who juggles a number of roles.

With MARCH Logistics, our freight forwarding and effective supply chain concepts, strategies and knowledge become yours at our specialised training courses.

A full or half-day course is open to everyone. Perhaps you’re starting importing or exporting, already moving freight internationally or you want to learn more about international forwarding.

Regardless, your business will benefit from a customised supply chain plan that reduces errors so you’ll be in a position to make informed, cost effective decisions. Our experienced instructors give you practical tools and tips you can immediately use to your business’s advantage.

Attend one of our regular courses or let us tailor one to suit your larger business. (If you’re considering a career in freight forwarding and logistics please call us on 09 275 5160.)
