Urban Logistics is where the supply chain meets the city. Its conference programme connects the challenges faced by retailers, fleet operators, city authorities, property owners and major urban logistics users with the technologies, services and expertise across the exhibition floor. Practical case studies and discussion help visitors assess how to improve delivery performance, invest with confidence and keep essential goods moving through busy urban environments. The three theatres give visitors evidence to inform decisions and questions to take to suppliers, while creating opportunities for exhibitors to show how their solutions address real operational needs.
