Industry meet in Bangkok to address logistics challenges

Industry leaders from the last-mile logistics, supply chain and commerce sectors will gather in Bangkok for two-days starting May 21 to discuss emerging challenges and the evolving needs of the last-mile logistics ecosystem.

Last-mile leaders APAC has already hosted editions across Asia, Europe, Africa and the US, and has emerged as a major forum for CXO-level leaders involved in delivery, fulfilment and supply chain operations.

The 2026 APAC edition is expected to bring together senior executives from retail, logistics, FMCG and commerce sectors across the region. Senior representatives from companies such as Electrolux, Metcash, JB Hi-Fi, CEVA Logistics, Thailand Post, and Coca-Cola Europacific Partners, among others, are expected to participate in the summit.

Kushal Nahata, CEO of FarEye, said Asia Pacific is currently witnessing some of the most complex and dynamic challenges in last-mile delivery globally, and the summit will bring together leaders who are actively shaping the future of the sector.

During the summit, the research report “Eye on the Last Mile” will be launched. The report is expected to provide insights into the current state of last-mile delivery infrastructure in Asia Pacific, the role of technology and AI in transforming operations and the strategies being adopted by major industry players.

Bangkok was chosen as the host city because South-East Asia and the wider Asia Pacific region have emerged as the fastest-growing and among the most complex last-mile delivery markets globally. Factors such as fragmented infrastructure, island geographies, rising consumer expectations, and the increasing adoption of AI and automation are reshaping the sector across the region.

The summit is intended to create a platform for industry leaders to exchange ideas and discuss how supply chain and last-mile networks are evolving at a time when the region’s logistics ecosystem is undergoing rapid transformation.
