I am also pleased that Sir Peter has agreed to continue in office.

“John and Rachel’s wide ranging experience in helping to run successful freight forwarding companies will ensure that BIFA and its members will benefit greatly from these new appointments.”

Sir Peter Bottomley, MP, remains as BIFA president.

Stubbings has been associated with BIFA for many years, and is currently group director and company secretary at the Woodland Group. He is also Chair of BIFA’s Legal and Insurance Policy Group.

Joining the Board as a director is Charles Hogg, commercial director of Unsworth Global Logistics. Hogg is currently Chair of BIFA’s Maritime, Road and Rail Policy Group. He replaces Andrew Melton of Ligentia, who has stepped down after fourteen years’ service on the Board. Melton will continue to assist BIFA in a Council role as Vice President.
