About Us
IFW has been providing high quality news and information for professionals involved in international freight transport and logistics industry since 1971.
Its readership is made up of senior decision-makers from freight forwarding and logistics companies and 28% are shippers - manufacturers, retailers and wholesalers - involved in import and export.
IFW’s committed team of journalists cover all aspects of the global supply chain, and have built up a reputation around the world for quality, accuracy and timeliness. News reporters are mode-specific - shipping, air and road/rail - and take pride in breaking real stories rather than reprinting press releases.
Crude differentiation by mode risks overlooking the blurring of the traditional dividing lines in our industry. The management of total supply chains and the emergence of logistics, time-definite and door-to-door services means that few ocean freight consolidators or air freight forwarders offer only this one resource. Shippers are looking for a wider variety of solutions.
This has seen IFW graduate into other, parallel areas of coverage outside of transport modes, such as:
- Supply chain management/warehousing/logistics
- Intermodal transport
- Express services
- Technology
- Security
- Customs
IFW’s products include:

- IFW Daily email bulletin and Weekly News Round-Up bulletin which are distributed to over 34,000 readers.
- IFW Weekly Appointments bulletin which is distributed to over 10,000 job seekers in the freight and transportation industry.
