Freight and Friends was founded by Devin van Hulst, a logistics professional with over 20 years of experience in freight forwarding and supply chain management. Throughout his career, Devin built a valuable and a everday growing network of logistics experts, which inspired him to create something more than just connections…. a true logistics community.
It all started in the Netherlands, where we hosted our first logistics networking events. These gatherings quickly proved that there was a strong need for more than just occasional meetups, companies and professionals were looking for meaningful, long-term business connections.
From that vision, Freight and Friends was born: a dedicated logistics network platform that connects people, creates opportunities, and strengthens relationships within the industry.
At Freight and Friends, we believe that logistics is built on relationships and we’re here to make those relationships count.

We focus on quality over quantity. Our mission is not to gather as many members as possible, but to connect the right people, freight forwarders, carriers, and supply chain professionals who can truly add value to each other’s business.
We actively facilitate introductions, build trust, and create personal involvement within our community.
Freight and Friends organizes multiple events each year, ensuring that members develop genuine connections rather than a one-time meet-and-greet.
From C-level gatherings to open logistics meetups and knowledge sharing events, every moment is designed to build partnerships and strengthen the logistics community.
