With one week till the new format UKIFDA Show & Conference, taking place on 10th May 2023 at CBS Arena in Coventry, organiser and trade association the UK and Ireland Fuel Distributors Association wishes to thank sponsors and exhibitors for supporting this important collective event.
The one-day event will platform the most up-to-date innovations in the liquid fuel distribution industry and its associated supply chain. It comprises a sold-out exhibitor space and conference hosting an insightful programme of speakers and three not-to-be-missed roundtables.
Reporting on the latest event activity, Ken Cronin, UKIFDA Chief Executive, said: “A huge thank you to all the sponsors and exhibitors for their support in making this new format Show & Conference happen. Whilst the event is taking place in person, all companies attending are busy populating their Whova app ‘virtual’ sales booths so that attendees can plan the stands they want to visit and, don’t forget, you can use the Whova app to arrange meetings and send messages.”
Commenting on the new event format, spokesperson for the Show’s headline sponsor Phillips 66 Limited, said: “We, at Phillips 66 Limited, are delighted to support UKIFDA Show & Conference 2023 and to once again be the headline sponsor. It is the liquid fuel distribution industry’s premier event and provides a unique opportunity for our community to come together to celebrate excellence and showcase innovation.”
Attendees will be welcomed to the CBS Arena in Coventry by outdoor vehicle sponsor, Tanquip’s vehicle.
The 500-capacity Awards Dinner will be hosted with acknowledgement to the support of a range of sponsors, including FoxInsights, sponsoring the President’s Drinks Reception and Mabanaft, sponsor of the Awards Dinner.
