By 1998 David had refined his vision of a much more effective, much stronger network structure for forwarders which would be of greater benefit to them and their clients – so he founded World Cargo Alliance, the first ever privately owned and managed forwarder network that was truly neutral and with its only priority to serve ALL members worldwide.

FIATA, a non-governmental organization, represents today an industry covering approximately 40,000 forwarding and logistics firms, also known as the "Architects of Transport", employing around 8 - 10 million people in 150 countries.
