Furthermore, Conqueror enhanced their presence on social media by creating an Instagram handle. “These days the audience is more reliant on audio-visual platforms like Instagram for their daily dose of news and this is precisely why Conqueror has decided to be active on this platform.”
2022 has also been marked by the intervention of Andrea Martin, Conqueror’s FreightViewer Coordinator, who participated in the Roundtable Panel Discussions in the Logistics Business Show, that took place from 15th to 17th March.
Lastly, Conqueror’s IT Department is working on two different web apps that will be launched in 2023, in order to facilitate members the access to all the Meeting features and the Directory of members.

Therefore, we are trying hard to make sure that our agents get to enhance their partnerships and have an unparalleled networking experience!” adds Mr Torres.

Maria Serrano, PR & Event Coordinator of Conqueror Freight Network
Q. Let’s begin with your experience at Conqueror Freight Network
A. I joined Conqueror’s team 6 years ago and saw how it has been growing since then. I really appreciate working with my colleagues and we get along really well. Since joining Conqueror, my task has been to figure out several promotional strategies for our members. My prior experience in journalism has sharpened my writing/communication skills and research ability all of which are important in my line of work. Working with Conqueror has taught me many new things and the perfect work ambience here allows me to do my job with utmost care and precision.
Q. What does your job consist of? Do you find your everyday tasks exciting?
A. The most important aspects of my job include organizational work for Conqueror’s Annual Meetings and managing the communication and marketing of the company. I really enjoy doing my job, specially the creative part. I learn everyday from my colleagues and also from members, it is really exciting to hear their work stories and how they manage to develop them. Additionally, arranging all the preparations for the Meeting is challenging, but at the same time, really comforting. Especially, when we see how the relationships among members become friendships with years, it is really moving watching them hug and so excited to meet each other again. You realize that Conqueror is a big family that has been embracing new members from the very beginning. Then, the Meeting is over and the whole team is thrilled every time a member congratulates us for our work. This appreciation from our members cannot be compared with any other feeling.
Q. What is the most challenging aspect of your job?
A. Choosing the best hotel, restaurant, band, photographers, and making other necessary arrangements for the meeting is perhaps my most challenging task. I have to do this task scrupulously so that all our members are happy and get to connect in the best possible environment. Also, organizing the whole event is a complicated job since there are many details to take into account. Furthermore, as we are far away this task involves a whole lot of phone calls, emails and videochats. When it comes to our members’ experience during the meeting we can’t make any mistakes!
Q. What is the most important objective of the Marketing and PR team?
A. The primary objective of our PR and Marketing team is to promote our members’ companies in every possible way. Moreover, it is also our task to arrange for a seamless Annual Meeting experience and make sure that the members are making the most of it.
Q. What do you like most about your work?
A. The commendable office environment allows me to be creative and innovative about every aspect of my job. As an American writer and PR specialist Ronn Torossian puts it, “PR is a mix of journalism, psychology, and lawyering – it’s an ever-changing and always interesting landscape.” It goes without saying that in spite of all its challenges my work is highly engaging and I thoroughly enjoy brain wracking to find the best solutions for our members.
Q. What can attending to Annual Meeting do for members?
A. The meetings help to foster a collaborative spirit by bringing together all the members. Moreover, the formal meetings and the informal chitchats, day tours and parties help to strengthen the bonding among the network members. Because of the Coronavirus we couldn’t arrange an in-person meeting in the last two years. Therefore, we are very excited since after two long years we are eagerly waiting to meet our members in person. We received loads of good comments about the organization and good connections made by Conqueror members, which is by far our best reward.
Honesty, expertise, independence, loyalty, and fairness are some of the values that drive me… I believe that the success of our team lies with the success of our members.
Q. How does Conqueror help to publicize the members’ activities?
A. We always encourage members to send us the latest news from their end. This allows us to create a promotional news piece about our members achievement that we publish on our news section every Friday. The members are also interviewed from time to time so that they get a chance to give their option about the industry defining issues and get a chance to talk about their services, experiences and specialties. We also make sure to promote this news on our social media pages where we encourage all our followers to read that news. Additionally, Conqueror’s SEO optimization endeavours further increase the visibility of the news which translates to greater popularity of our members.
Q. What are the latest marketing endeavours of Conqueror in 2022?
A. In 2022, we have implemented several different marketing actions. This includes the upgrading of our members area, addition of many new features to our website, the launch of logistics courses, the creation of web apps for the meetings and the implementation of an SEO strategy. We are presently working on the implementation of many more useful marketing strategies. However, the details will be revealed at the right time!
Q. What are the values that motivate you?
A. Honesty, expertise, independence, loyalty, and fairness are some of the values that drive me. I try to incorporate these values in every aspect of my task and I make sure to abide by these work ethics. I believe that the success of our team lies with the success of our members.

Q. When and how did you get into the freight forwarding industry?
A. I have been very interested in international trade and logistics since my college days. This is why I decided to work with a freight forwarding company. I joined CIMC Andashun because it has an enthusiastic team and provides a good platform for the employees. I have been with CIMC Andashun for 6 years and I plan to keep working here for many more years to come.
Q. Today you are celebrating the 16th anniversary of your company. Congratulations! What does this anniversary mean for your team?
A. This is absolutely a very special day for us and we are delighted to share this joy with all the members. For the last 16 years, our company has focused on 4 primary pillars- integrity, innovation, pragmatism and efficiency. Providing unparalleled logistics services regardless of the circumstances every day for the last 16 years has been quite a feat! No matter the situation, the one thing which we never did was give up.
On the occasion of our 16th anniversary, we want to thank all our partners and customers for the years of support to CIMC Anda Shun, which inspires us to continue fulfilling our mission as a leading logistics company.
By celebrating this 16th anniversary, we are also celebrating the success of the entire team.

16th Anniversary Celebrations of Conqueror Chengdu
Q. How were the beginnings of your company?
A. Internally, CIMC Andashun has been led by an excellent management team which guides us whenever there is any potential challenge. We are also facilitated by an active sales team and an operation team, that makes our internal atmosphere innovative and open. Externally, CIMC Andashun has been actively keeping close contact with airlines, shipping lines and network partners for all these years. Our good performance also attracted the attention of CIMC Group company. Last year we finished the strategic investment from them. We have been committed to the goal of becoming a leading international logistics company.
Q. How did CIMC change in all these years?
A. CIMC Andashun was founded in 2006 iby our CEO Mr Gerry Yang, who has many years of logistics experience – He worked at Air China for years. From that year, CIMC has been growing and growing and our team formed by over 500 employees is becoming stronger with the time.
Q. What are the biggest challenges you have faced during these 16 years?
A. As a logistics company, we meet the challenges everyday because the market is not so stable and competition was always there from the very beginning. Although it is hard to indicate what are the biggest challenges so far, still we have to admit that the COVID-19 had a specially unpredictable impact on every company. Luckily we did a good job so far, and we are ready to face the upcoming challenges.
“By celebrating this 16th anniversary, we are also celebrating the success of the entire team. On its way to the next 16 years, we will certainly experience more setbacks and challenges, but we also will overcome them and make many more achievements.

Q. What has been the most significant shipment your team has handled?
A. CIMC Andashun makes a yearly summary at the end of each year. However, it’s hard to tell which one is the most significant shipment we have handled as all partner/customers are equally important for us. Apart from handling projects for international companies such as Huawei, Xiaomi, Gree, Walmart, ZTE etc, we also handle server transportation, sea freight, rail freight, intermodal transportation in the China-South America route and elsewhere, etc. The services that we can offer are diverse and professional, we can do what many other logistics company can’t do, and we value every shipment no matter if it is big or small. Maybe the most significant shipment is always in the near future.
Q. Where do you see CIMC in the next 16 years?
A. In the last 16 years CIMC Andashun has grown up from an infant to a youth. People in their youth always have unlimited possibilities. So has our company.
On its way to the next 16 years, CIMC Andashun will certainly experience more setbacks and challenges, but also it will overcome those challenges and make many more achievements. We believe that CIMC Andashun will be more brilliant and powerful on the international stage 16 years from now.
