Yesterday, Brigid and the team had the pleasure of attending the Empowering Women in International Trade and Supply Chains event, hosted by WISTA UK at Belfast Harbour.

The event brought together people from across the industry for a great day of discussions, shared experiences and insights into the complex world of international trade. 🌍 🤝

Our customs expert, Sarah-Louise, also joined the panel discussion, sharing her knowledge of the industry and her experience working in international trade.

A big thank you to WISTA UK and everyone involved in putting together such a fantastic event. It was a great to be part of the day! 💙
