Nairn Foster comments: “IWLEX will continue to be shaped by the industry, for the industry. Our core pillars and focus on inclusion remain the bedrock of our purpose led event. But our new branding; "IWLEX – The UK Festival of Warehousing, shows our determination to create something fresh, vibrant and new that celebrates our ever-evolving sector and delivers a valuable and memorable day out for our visitors. There will be and increased focus on practical demonstrations, 100’s of exhibitors, and a festival feel of fun, food, music, laughter and community”.

Nairn Foster, IWLEX's Managing Director, expresses his gratitude: "IWLEX version 1.0 was an overwhelming success. We extend our heartfelt thanks to all the associations that helped us shape the event, including UKWA, AMHSA, RTITB, SEMA UK, The Institute of Courriers, among others. We are deeply appreciative of our exhibitors and, of course, our valued visitors who travelled to Telford to witness the launch. Our post-event feedback was exceedingly positive, with 95% of visitors indicating they would either recommend the event to a friend or attend again. We are confident that our more central location and focus on practical demonstrations will further strengthen IWLEX in 2024."

IWLEX 2024 will take place at NAEC Stoneleigh on the 14th and 15th of May. The organisers are calling on suppliers to the UK Warehousing sector who have products and or ideas that can be used in the IWLEX demonstration zone to get in touch.

With only two weeks until the 2024 event visitors are urged to sign up for FREE, at www.iwlex.co.uk. On the 14th there is also a FREE party with FREE food, drink and a QUEEN tribute band.
