Freightcamp Ho Chi Minh City 2026 will bring the global PANCO community together at Sheraton Saigon Grand Opera from 27 to 29 October 2026 for business discussions, networking and more than 50 dedicated 1to1 meeting sessions across the two official meeting days. The event is designed to help members develop partnerships, identify specialist capabilities and explore new freight opportunities.

Freightcamp Ho Chi Minh City is getting closer. From 27 to 29 October 2026, our global PANCO community will come together at the Sheraton Saigon Grand Opera for three days of business, networking and time together.

And we are now entering the final stretch for registrations.

For those still considering joining us, perhaps the best way to look ahead to Freightcamp is not through the programme, the meeting schedule or the dinners.

Instead, think about the conversations that could be happening very soon.

“We have a new customer moving refrigerated goods. Can you handle the destination side?”

A customer opens a new market. The volumes are interesting, the opportunity is there, but you need a reliable partner who understands temperature-sensitive cargo and can give you confidence locally.

At Freightcamp, the right person may be sitting across the table from you.

One conversation becomes an exchange of capabilities. Then a quotation. Then a first shipment. And potentially, regular cooperation.

“We are developing more business in the energy sector.”

Two members discover that their companies are moving in the same strategic direction.

One has strong customer relationships at origin. The other has local experience, specialised handling capabilities or contacts at destination.

They were not necessarily looking for each other before the meeting.

Now there is something worth developing together.

“We have regular movements for a mining customer. There could be something here for both of us.”

Sometimes the opportunity is already moving.

A member controls recurring cargo but needs stronger coverage in another market. Another member has exactly the local capabilities required.

The conversation becomes more specific. Volumes, routes, equipment, local requirements, upcoming shipments.

That is when networking starts becoming business.

“Our customer has asked us to cover a market where we need a stronger partner.”

This happens every day in freight forwarding.

New destination. New origin. New customer requirement. A project outside the usual scope. A trade lane the sales team wants to develop.

Having the right partner already within reach can make a significant difference when that enquiry arrives.

Freightcamp gives members the opportunity to build those relationships before they are urgently needed.

“Actually, we can help you with that.”

Perhaps this is one of the most valuable sentences heard at any Freightcamp.

Because not every opportunity is planned.

You may arrive in Ho Chi Minh City with five priority markets in mind and return home having discovered a sixth.

You may schedule a meeting to discuss ocean freight and discover a partner's project cargo capabilities.

A conversation over coffee may reveal that two companies share a customer sector.

An introduction from another member may connect you with exactly the specialist you have been looking for.

These are the spontaneous connections that are difficult to reproduce through emails, directories or online searches alone.

What conversations will you bring to Ho Chi Minh City?

Freightcamp 2026 will bring our community together from around the world, with more than 50 dedicated 1to1 meeting sessions and complementary networking activities across the two official meeting days.

But the real value will be determined by what members bring into those conversations: their customers' needs, new markets, controlled business, specialist capabilities, trade lanes they want to develop and ideas they are ready to share.

Some conversations will strengthen partnerships that already exist.

Others will introduce people who have never worked together before.

And some may become shipments, new customers, regular traffic or a completely new area of cooperation.

That is what we are looking forward to most.
