The garden industry plays an important part in our business, says Glee's logistics partner FCL Global

With over 500 leading UK and international wholesale garden suppliers attending this year’s show, Glee provides one of the best industry platforms in the UK for thousands of products produced worldwide, which all heavily rely on an efficient, cost-effective route to market. The show's organisers, i2i Events, are pleased to announce its new logistics partner for Glee 2014 will be FCL Global Forwarding, a multi-model logistics provider specialising in moving products for customers by sea, air, road or rail.

Matthew Mein, event manager for Glee, who warmly welcomes the partnership said: “We’ll relish the opportunity of working with FCL Global, a business at the forefront of the logistics sector, as we believe they offer a truly unique proposition.”

As Glee gets underway we catch up with FCL Global’s Paul O’Malley (pictured), to get the lowdown on Glee’s newest sponsor.

How did you first hear of Glee?
We heard of Glee through our partnership with the Garden Industry Manufacturers Association (GIMA). It provided a fantastic opportunity to be involved with such a prolific trade show that we couldn’t say no to.

Can you tell us a little bit about your business?
FCL Global is a logistics business specialising in the movement of goods by various means – that could be by sea, air or road – and providing complete solutions. We’re also huge believers in delivering a personalised service to make this happen, while at the same time applying a high degree of knowledge, customer service and communication.

How important is the garden retail industry to your business? How do you hope this might change through your brand visibility at Glee 2014?
There’s no denying that the garden retail industry plays an important part in our business. We currently work in partnership with a number of companies operating within this sector. We’ve spent a great deal of time getting to grips with the challenges that companies in the garden retail industry face, particularly those involved in importing from the Far East.

We’ve designed and implemented complete solutions to solve these problems – it’s no longer about logistics in today's globalised economy being "just logistics". We hope that by raising the profile of the FCL Global brand at Glee we will get the opportunity to consult with many more companies and demonstrate how we can save them time and money through our personalised logistics solutions.

Our support of Glee will give us some great exposure, both online and of course at the show itself. Besides our logo on the Glee website, we’ll be featured on various social media platforms including Facebook and Twitter during the event. Visitors and exhibitors will be able to spot our branding on the show’s registration desks and on the 5,000 show bags being given out over the three days, containing information on our price-efficient logistics services for the industry’s global suppliers that rely on safe, swift delivery to the UK as well as anywhere else in the world.

Meet FCL Global at Glee 2014
FCL Global will be exhibiting at this year’s show, where you can visit them in Hall 17, Stand U66. Alternatively you can find out more by visiting www.fclgf.com or by calling 0845 222 5555.
