About
The British International Freight Association (BIFA) is the trade association for UK-registered companies engaged in international movement of freight by all modes of transport, air, road, rail and sea. BIFA has over 1600 corporate members, known generally as freight forwarders, which offer a wide range of services within these various modes.\n\nBIFA is non-profit making and recognised by national and international freight industry bodies as the representative organisation for the freight forwarding industry. \n\nThe association’s goal is to provide effective representation and support for the UK international freight services industry; to promote good practice and total quality in the provision of freight services by all members, and to encourage the membership to observe the highest standards of professional competence. \n\nTo achieve that, BIFA has developed four main strands of activity: \n\nRepresentation and lobbying: BIFA is widely recognised by many organisations and government departments as the representative body of the industry and is consulted on many subjects. \n\nInformation and advice: Through regular events, social media, our website, weekly newsletter and monthly publication BIFAlink, BIFA keeps members up-to-date with all aspects of the industry. \n\nPromotion: Promoting the freight forwarder in the world of UK commerce is one of BIFA's main activities. \nTraining: BIFA provides a full range of training courses, available to both BIFA members and non-members. \n\nBIFA is controlled by its members, which give their time on a voluntary basis to establish policy and make decisions on behalf of the organisation. This is achieved through a network of committees organised through Regional Representatives. The governance of the Association is achieved through an elected Board of Directors and Council. These bodies delegate day-to-day policy development to a range of modal-specific Policy Groups, as well as a number of advisory bodies.
