Jong Logistiek Nederland (JLN) emerged from the former ‘vLm Young Professionals’ and is a joint project of two key players in the logistics sector: Vereniging Logistiek Management (VLM) and EVO (evofenedex).<\/span><\/p>

In 2005, Mark van Ommen and Jan Kraaijveld founded vLm Young Professionals, with the support of Hessel Visser. In 2010, Sybrand Meersschaert, Sven de Keiser and Rienk Bierenbroodspot further developed this initiative into Jong Logistiek Nederland, as it exists today as a foundation. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
