In a move set to transform the UK logistics and supply chain exhibition landscape, Warehouse. (formerly IWLEX) and Yard. (formerly YARDX) will, for the first time, co-locate (in adjacent halls with internal walkthrough) with Multimodal — including the E-Delivery Expo — at the NEC Birmingham in 2026.

This strategic collaboration marks the creation of the UK’s most comprehensive end-to-end supply chain logistics showcase and establishes the destination exhibition for the entire UK logistics ecosystem — from freight forwarding and warehouse automation to yard safety and last-mile fulfilment.

Together, this strategic move forms the UK’s most complete supply chain and logistics exhibition destination.

As part of this strategic realignment:

· IWLEX rebrands to Warehouse., aligning directly with its core focus on warehouse innovation, materials handling, intralogistics, and operational excellence.

· YARDX rebrands to Yard., reflecting its unique position as the only platform focused on yard operations, materials handling, outdoor storage, safety, and site flow.

· Multimodal, including the E-Delivery Expo, continues to represent the UK’s leading platform for freight, transport, logistics, and last-mile fulfilment.

This co-located showcase brings together four synergistic focus areas under one roof:

· Multimodal – Freight, transport, logistics, and last-mile delivery

· Warehouse. – Intralogistics, automation, materials handling, and warehouse operations

· Yard. – Yard safety, materials handling, outdoor storage, and infrastructure

· E-Delivery – (as part of Multimodal) focused on e-commerce and fulfilment technologies
