Tuesday the 29th of April sees an important day on the calendar for those involved with haulage or transportation. The UK commercial vehicle show kicks off at Birminghams N.E.C with exhibitors showing their wares, everything from tyres to roof spoilers and all the major component suppliers will be there.

And of course, expect to see the manufacturers there too including our very own Leyland Trucks Ltd who sell into the DAF brand. Still producing trucks in Lancashire under PACAAR stewardship, Leyland produce all right hand drive vehicles of the well recieved new Euro 6 range. Vauxhall who also produce vans in Luton will also be proudly showing off their lastest Vivaro range too.

The Commercial Vehicle Show is the primary sourcing and selling opportunity for
the entire UK road freight transport and logistics industry, unrivalled in size,
product range and visitor attendance. For operators it is THE meeting place,
attracting over 18,000 high quality visitors with serious buying power.

All under one massive roof, at the UK’s best connected venue, you will find hundreds of exhibitors spanning the whole road freight transport, distribution and logistics supply business. From truck, van and trailer manufacturers through to fork lift trucks, insurers, tyre, telematics and training providers, fuels and lubricants suppliers and a whole lot more.

To ensure the industry’s wheels are kept turning at maximum efficiency, the accompanying Workshop zone will showcase everything from OE components and replacement parts to maintenance management systems, garage and bodyshop equipment.

A visit to the CV Show, at the NEC Birmingham, will fulfil all your sourcing needs and help grow your productivity and profit. Even if you are just a keen transport fan, the show is a truly great day out and a real eye opener. Myself and Andy Goundry will be attending on Thursday… so if you see us mooching around, do say hello!

Entry is also totally free. The show is on from April 29th through to May 1st and more details can be found by simply clicking HERE
