The representative business group Logisitics UK want the new Government to appoint a Minister for Logistics and Supply chain.

New survey data showing fewer than a third of adults think the government is doing enough to support this vital sector. The Ipsos survey* of over 2,000 adults reveals that four in five adults agree that the strength of the UK’s economy depends on having an efficient logistics sector which delivers goods in a timely and cost-effective way.

It also shows that the UK public believes growing the economy and creating jobs should be the government’s top priority around policies for logistics, followed by keeping the costs of goods down for customers.
