Since 2008, Multimodal has successfully built a supply chain and logistics community of shippers, retailers, manufacturers, wholesalers, importers and exporters alongside the suppliers who support them, bringing them all together at an annual event at the NEC in Birmingham. Multimodal provides an unparalleled meeting place where shippers and cargo owners attend to discover resources to improve their businesses by identifying new ways of moving their products more efficiently, more sustainably, and more cost effectively.  Hosting every logistics sector, Multimodal offers a one-stop shop to make valuable face-to-face contact with hundreds of new prospects and to network with existing suppliers.
