Automotive logistics conference to be held in Sao Paulo

The Automotive Logistics South America Conference will be held at the Renaissance Hotel in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Nov. 3.

The event, which promotes short- and long-term solutions for the automotive field, is an opportunity for industry buyers and suppliers to network. The conference will bring together original equipment manufacturers, tier suppliers, policy makers and logistics service providers.

Paulo Sarti, director of event sponsor Penske, will be one of the panelists. He will discuss Penske's strategies to support Brazil's economy and to assist customers during the recent economic downturn. Sales director Fabricio Orrigo will lead a think tank on the lead logistics provider concept.

"We're very pleased to be a first-time premier conference sponsor," Sarti said. "We look forward to connecting with current and prospective customers and our colleagues."

Penske Logistics is a wholly owned subsidiary of Penske Truck Leasing.
