Industrial Agents Society - General - IAS take on Europe

Date: 18 Apr 2000

The Industrial Agents Society (IAS), with nearly a 1,000 members throughout the United Kingdom, is poised to take on Europe by offering membership to industrial agents based overseas.

Chairman, Tim Johnson says: "The expansion overseas of many UK firms [of agents] particularly in Europe and the truly international nature of the industrial market has encouraged us for the first time to offer overseas membership. Cilents too will benefit internationally from our very effective networking that is often based on real friendships and is the key to the success of the IAS".

The primary purpose of the IAS is to foster and maintain contact between industrial agents in order to enhance the expertise and knowledge of individual members and the firms that employ them. The move to encourage overseas membership will broaden these aims and it is anticipated that before long the IAS will be hosting technical visits to Europe and hold seminars on the international property aspects of today's distribution logistics and e-commerce businesses

"You never know, one day, we might even hold our famous annual dinner in Paris, Prague or Patagonia" adds Tim Johnson.
