www.truckandtrack.com Autumn 2026 Truck and Track 7 BUSINESS NEWS The partnership between Truck and Track Magazine and UPN proved to be one of the highlights of the exhibition, attracting a continuous flow of visitors throughout the three-day event and demonstrating the value of combining trusted industry media with one of the UK’s most respected freight distribution networks. People Who Made the Difference The success of the stand was underpinned by the enthusiasm and professionalism of everyone involved. Truck and Track was delighted to receive the support of Sue Keenan, PA to the UPN Directors; Ryan Brown from Olcan Digital Marketing; Jo Davina, UPN Finance Analyst; Gwyn Samuel, Area Sales Manager at Unisto; Kirsty Stewart, Sales Coordinator at Unisto; and Dawn Smith from RAM Mounts UK Ltd. The stand was also honoured to welcome David Brown, Managing Director of United Pallet Network, together with Regional Directors Andrew Knowles and Craig Perkins, whose presence reflected the importance of the occasion and the continued strength of UPN’s leadership. Their collective contribution helped create a welcoming, energetic and highly professional environment that perfectly reflected the collaborative spirit of the logistics industry. A Showcase of Industry Leadership The exhibition demonstrated how rapidly the sector continues to evolve. Sustainability, resilience, automation, artificial intelligence, digitalisation and operational efficiency dominated conversations across the exhibition halls, while the conference programme provided valuable insight into the challenges and opportunities facing the industry over the coming years. For Truck and Track Magazine, these discussions generated valuable editorial intelligence that will shape future features covering transport technology, fleet management, supply chain resilience, compliance, recruitment and infrastructure investment. A Landmark Success for Truck and Track The exhibition also reinforced the continuing importance of trusted business-to-business publishing. Face-to-face meetings enabled the Truck and Track team to strengthen existing advertiser relationships, welcome new commercial partners, distribute thousands of copies of the magazine and significantly expand its digital audience through new newsletter subscriptions. The collaborative exhibition model, bringing advertisers directly onto the stand, proved particularly successful. Rather than operating as a traditional media presence, Truck and Track created a busy networking destination where suppliers, operators, manufacturers and logistics professionals could engage in meaningful conversations that delivered genuine commercial value. The event also demonstrated the enduring influence of quality print media within an increasingly digital marketplace. While digital communication continues to evolve, visitors repeatedly recognised the value of a respected publication that delivers authoritative industry journalism, trusted advertising and practical business information directly into the hands of decision-makers. Looking Ahead Multimodal 2026 showcased an industry embracing innovation while remaining firmly rooted in the relationships, partnerships and expertise that have always driven British logistics. For Truck and Track Magazine, the event reinforced its role as both a leading industry publication and a trusted commercial partner connecting businesses across every area of the transport and supply chain sectors. Publishing Director Barbara Ryan summed up the success of the exhibition: “Multimodal 2026 exceeded every expectation for Truck and Track Magazine. The quality of visitors, the strength of our advertiser partnerships and the level of meaningful business conversations throughout the three days clearly demonstrated why this event continues to be the benchmark for the UK logistics industry. We were incredibly proud to showcase so many outstanding businesses that regularly support the magazine and equally proud to celebrate United Pallet Network’s 25th anniversary alongside its exceptional team. Their continued success is a wonderful example of what can be achieved through collaboration, innovation and long-term commitment to customers. We would like to thank every advertiser, visitor, partner and member of the industry who helped make our stand such a tremendous success, and we look forward to building on these relationships as we continue supporting the transport and logistics sector throughout the year.” As the exhibition closed its doors on another record-breaking year, one thing remained certain. The businesses that filled the Truck and Track stand are not simply participating in the future of logistics—they are helping to define it. Together, they demonstrated why collaboration, innovation and trusted partnerships remain the driving forces behind one of the UK’s most dynamic industries.
