Who We Are
Building bridges between transport managers across Europe and the world.
Our Identity
The International Federation of Transport Executives (FICT) is a European and international organization that brings together professional unions representing managers, engineers, supervisors, and specialists across all sectors of transport and logistics.
Rooted in the tradition of social dialogue and collective expertise, we defend the voice of those who lead, coordinate, and innovate in the strategic sectors of maritime, inland waterways, rail, road, ports, logistics, and aviation.
Founded on values of responsibility, solidarity, and professionalism, FICT serves as a trusted reference point for transport executives worldwide.
Our Mission
