Spotlight on the Commercial Vehicle industry
Examining the limelight of the industry and the importance of this year’s Commercial Vehicle Show
With ticket registration opening today for the 2021 Commercial Vehicle Show, we take a closer look at how the road transport sector has been shouldering a heavy load for the last year, and why attendance for both exhibitors and visitors at the 2021 Commercial Vehicle Show is crucial.
Under a cloak of overnight deliveries, behind-the-scenes efforts and a ‘head-down, get-on-with-it’ culture, the operations and achievements of the road transport, cold chain storage and fleet management sectors have been obscured for far too long.
