The Canadian International Freight Forwarders Association was founded September 1948 in Montreal. It was started by a small group of freight forwarders who saw a need to create an industry association to meet the professional demands of its members. Their original goals were simple:
While we have certainly grown and evolved, those founding principles still remain today.
“I am honoured to have been appointed the President of the Board of Directors for CIFFA on May 10, 2023. It is with great enthusiasm that I step into this role, fully aware of the immense responsibility that comes with it.
"I am committed to upholding the principles that CIFFA stands for, and I pledge to devote myself to the continued success of the association.
“I want to thank all of our members for the opportunity to represent you as the President of CIFFA’s Board of Directors. I look forward to the ongoing work to raise our industry’s profile, and I hope to see all of you at our networking events.”
