Peter MacLeod

Peter is an independent marketing advisor working primarily in the logistics sector. He was previously a business-to-business editor with almost 30 years’ experience across both business and consumer journalism. Initially qualified and trained as a quantitative chemist, he was drawn into journalism by the lure of a position reporting for a weekly motor racing newspaper. He rose up through the ranks to launch, publish and edit his own Formula One magazine. Switching to B2B PR and journalism, Peter edited a number of industry titles before being appointed editor of SHD Logistics magazine in 2006. Under Peter's editorship, SHD’s partner website www.shdlogistics.com was launched and has prospered, and several SHD Logistics-branded events have been established, including the annual Logistics Awards, which boasts Transaid as its charity partner. Peter helped establish SHD Logistics as a profitable and extremely well-respected title, taking it away from a fork lift truck magazine to one that covers the entire logistics industry. Now he works with a number of businesses from the logistics sector across Europe from offices in Amsterdam and Poland. Peter supports Transaid at industry events (when permitted) using his industry expertise, and in a personal capacity by participating in our challenge events. Most recently, he completed Cycle South Africa 2017, and has also participated in Cycle Tanzania in 2015.
