Marius Cae

President of USER

As the representative body of freight forwarding and logistics companies in Romania, USER is proud to join SEEFF and FIATA in a shared commitment to strengthening regional cooperation and industry excellence.

Romanian freight forwarders play an essential role at the crossroads of European supply chains, connecting East and West through resilient, innovative, and customer-focused services.

Our members face challenges that are increasingly complex—ranging from infrastructure constraints and fluctuating market conditions to rapid digitalisation and new regulatory demands. Yet these challenges also bring opportunities. By working together within the SEEFF and FIATA framework, we can promote common standards, encourage innovation, and support a more predictable and competitive logistics environment across Southeast Europe.

We believe that the voice of Romanian forwarders adds valuable perspective to SEEFF and FIATA’s mission: one shaped by agility, adaptability, and long-standing experience in navigating diverse markets.

It is an honour for us to stand alongside SEEFF, FIATA and our fellow associations, united by the ambition to elevate our profession and to build a more efficient and sustainable future for the industry.

We warmly invite you all to join us in Bucharest, as we carry forward our common purpose of strengthening regional progress in logistics.

It is my great pleasure to extend my warmest greetings to all participants of the SEEFF x FIATA REU Field Meeting 2026. I applaud USER Romania for hosting this important regional gathering and for their unwavering commitment to strengthening the voice of freight forwarders across Europe.

As FIATA enters an exciting new chapter, our mission remains clear: to empower our global community through knowledge, innovation, and collaboration. The regional engagement of the FIATA Europe (REU) community plays a vital role in advancing these goals. It is through platforms like SEEFF that we reinforce unity, share best practices, and build the operational and digital capabilities that will define the logistics sector of tomorrow.

In today’s rapidly evolving landscape—shaped by digital transformation, geopolitical shifts, sustainability imperatives, and the demand for resilient supply chains—our industry must remain agile and forward-looking. The strength of FIATA lies in our ability to work together as one global federation, leveraging regional insights and local expertise to co-create solutions for the future.

I am confident that the SEEFF x FIATA REU Field Meeting 2026 in Bucharest will not only foster meaningful dialogue but also inspire new partnerships and initiatives that strengthen our profession across Europe and beyond. USER Romania has long demonstrated exemplary leadership in the region, and I look forward to our continued close cooperation as we advance FIATA’s strategic priorities and elevate the role of freight forwarders on the global stage.

I wish all participants a productive, engaging, and memorable event in Bucharest.

Let us continue to move forward together—united in purpose, committed to excellence, and bold in our vision for the future of global logistics.
