The TBN Club meets every second month in Johannesburg where members of the shipping fraternity meet socially for lunch as well as listening to a different guest speaker discussing issues and topics relevant to the industry.
TBN stands for “To Be Nominated” which is a shipping term. When the event was launched nobody could come up with a name, so TBN was used and it stuck. If you are involved in the shipping or freight forwarding sectors and would like to find out more information regarding he TBN Club and when their next meeting is please contact Diane Schmidt on 083 481 1820 or via email on
tbn-club@hotmail.com.
