The 2011 Logistics Link North exhibition will take place this year in a massive new warehouse in Doncaster.
The exhibition, which runs between 27 and 28 September, will showcase a number of products and services associated with business logistics and transport, including warehouse services, materials handling machinery, packaging systems and storage. The event is backed by the United Kingdom Warehouse Association, the Chartered Institute of Logistics & Transport and the Road Haulage Association.
The warehouse complex that will be home to the exhibition boasts an internal space of some 240,000 sq ft, with high roof clearance and a great deal of outdoor space for live demonstrations and heavy equipment.
The location of Doncaster is an apposite one, as there has been a recent announcement of a new £400 million inland port and logistics park soon to be built at Rossington Island just outside the city. This new business park will officially open sometime towards the end of next year, and will cement the region’s reputation as a centre for logistics.
