As Southeast Asia experiences a surge in intraregional trade, infrastructure investment, and digital transformation, the second edition of transport logistic Southeast Asia and air cargo Southeast Asia (tlacSEA) returns to Singapore’s Sands Expo & Convention Centre from 29 to 31 October 2025. Widely recognized as the region’s most influential logistics and air cargo event, tlacSEA 2025 will bring together industry leaders to shape the future of supply chains across the region.

Southeast Asia’s logistics GDP is forecast to reach USD 5.4 trillion by 2030 (IMF World Economic Outlook). With accelerating trade growth, infrastructure upgrades, and digital adoption, the region is quickly becoming a key hub for global logistics players seeking innovation, expansion, and strategic collaboration.

Building on a successful inaugural edition, tlacSEA 2025 is expected to welcome over 10,000 attendees and more than 300 exhibitors spanning the logistics, shipping, and air cargo sectors. This year’s event will serve as a strategic platform to advance resilience, sustainability, and digitalization—three pillars essential for Southeast Asia’s long-term logistics transformation. “In today’s volatile global environment, resilience, sustainability, and digitalization are no longer optional—they are essential,” said Michael Wilton, CEO & Managing Director of MMI Asia. “tlacSEA is more than just a trade show; it is the most important and influential meeting place for logistics and air cargo professionals in Southeast Asia. Singapore’s strategic location and innovation driven economy make it the ideal venue for regional and global logistics leaders to convene and shape the future.”
