Run your own logistics company! Each player will need to move their products around the world by air, land and sea as quickly as they can. But you’ll also need to make a profit and respect the environment too!
Business on the Move is a fantastic and versatile game for all ages, fun for the family and can also be of great educational value too thanks to its realism and topicality.
We’re Andy Page and Patricia Smedley, former teachers. We came up with Business on the Move to inspire anyone from age 9 to 90 about international business and global supply chains.
The first (UK) Edition was launched in 2014, after extensive trials with almost 600 young people aged 9 to 19, logistics managers and HR staff. Our second (Global) Edition followed in 2018. Watch our video here.
At Business on the Move, we are not for profit. Instead, we are a Community Interest Company (or CIC) and are limited by a guarantee. Any profits we do make will be invested back into the company or into the community instead.
Our sponsors have been integral to our success and represent a cross-section of UK and global supply chain organisations – we can’t thank them enough. Find out more about our sponsors here.
We aim to inspire and excite young people about international business and global supply chains. We want Business on the Move to give them an insight that connects classroom learning to business reality and develops skills that will make them more employable in the future.
The game offers real-world scenarios and is supported by resources that blend learning and enjoyment, a powerful combination in any classroom and in any home. They can be used in the classroom or at home to extend the game.
The awards we have received from both the education and business sectors mean a great deal to us. They are testament to fact that a well-designed board game offers versatility, learning outcomes and the capacity to engage players in a fun way whilst doing so.
Any award symbolises the importance of investing in our young people too, as they will be the future talent for all businesses.
