Full membership of the Aviation & Marine Logistics 365 network is only available to International Forwarders/Logistics Companies meeting the full criteria and
with specialist skills in dealing with time-critical and AOG deliveries for the aviation industry or, time-critical and Door To Deck deliveries for the marine industry. Applying for full membership couldn't be simpler, no long detailed and irrelevant application forms to complete.
Important - by submitting your application you agree and confirm that you meet the strict membership criteria which is the cornerstone of the organisation. Specifically, you confirm that:
- You represent a privately owned and managed company, which is preferably endorsed by a current member who has been trading satisfactorily with your company for at least one year. If this is not possible, please provide a reference of at least one other independent forwarder who you have a business relationship with who could, if requested, endorse your application.
- You are able to demonstrate that you are equipped and capable of servicing time sensitive shipments 24 hours a day 7 days a week, perhaps not in aviation, but in any other time critical sector.
- You are prepared to make payments to other members within a maximum of 30 days from end of month.
- You should be prepared to dedicate or offer new business to other members within one year of joining. (This requirement can be waived if you have genuine commercial reasons for not making this commitment.) In such circumstances, or if you are unable to reciprocate, you will be required to explain to the member concerned offering specific commercial reasons why you cannot do so.
- Existing long standing relationships which cannot be changed are acceptable on the basis that you may not receive business from the member in those areas. You must specify these areas on your application, at the outset, if there are contractual reasons to support this decision. We do hope, however, that you will make every effort to make changes during the course of your membership.
- A Senior Representative from your company will attend the Annual Conference within the first year of membership, and at least 2 meetings out of every 3 in future years
