Shape Your Future

The WFLO Institute is a four-day industry-specific program offering more than 40 classes taught by leading experts in the refrigerated warehousing industry. The curriculum takes students through the food industry, supply chain and logistics field, and cold storage warehousing. It is held each year at the Georgia Institute of Technology and sponsored by Lanier Technical College, an IARW Service Partner.

During challenging times, many companies eliminate training as a way to reduce expenses.  However, companies who commit to education and training during tough times, retain their talent and position themselves for success in the future.

Therefore, we are challenging PRW executives to invest in employee training by sending their top mid to upper-level PRW professionals to the WFLO Institute in 2010.  We are challenging PRW professionals to commit to their own career development by registering for the Institute.  Finally, we are challenging all of our member companies to Shape their Future by demonstrating a commitment to education and industry collaboration.

The 2010 WFLO Institute will be held at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Georgia, USA from the 2010 WFLO Institute, 31 January - 3 February 2010.
