Central European Network for Logistics Competence

CENTRAL LOCO is project of the 6th Framework Programme of European Commission. The aim of the project is to promote dissemination and exploitation of the results of RTD projects of the 5th and 6th Framework Programs among the enterprises and research units operating in the Central-European logistics and transport sector. With this general goal in mind, through its 24 months duration, CENTRAL LOCO will provide one conference and 3 practical workshops in four different countries of the region. The events will be addressing the aspects of the logistics and intermodal transport problems that are most relevant to the Partners' countries. For more details visit the project webpage.
