SELECT GREATER PHILADELPHIA'S INTERNATIONAL LOGISTICS MEDIA TOUR ATTRACTS KEEN FOREIGN INTERESTSelect Greater Philadelphia hosted a comprehensive 4-day International Logistics Media tour earlier this month featuring the region's robust logistics industry encompassing land, sea and sky and its significant impact on global trade. The tour included some of the region's top business leaders and facilities from the area's port, rail, air, warehousing and trucking logistics organizations throughout Northern Delaware, Southeastern Pennsylvania, and Southern New Jersey.
