With colleagues from Manchester Metropolitan and Derby Universities, Tracey is surveying visitors to the show to answer ‘How do Logisticians shop on-line?’. The results will be reported at a quarterly Heads of Industry event.

Prof Liz Barnes, deputy VC Sheffield Hallam University

It is great to see collaboration between Universities and Industry informing our practice of the future. We look forward to supporting the Institute of Couriers in their understanding of how logisticians shop on-line and identify differences to the high street purchaser.
