The International Urban Freight Conference (I-NUF) is the premier biennial conference that addresses all aspects of city logistics and goods movement in the world’s metropolitan areas. The conference will bring together researchers and practitioners in urban freight, supply chains, and logistics from around the world from May 25-27.

While the world awaits a clear victory over a global pandemic, the supply chain carries on. As the freight system navigates these challenges, it continues to work toward the sustainability goals set out by the State and called for by local communities.
