Since its launch in 2008, the success of Multimodal has escalated beyond expectations. Despite somewhat difficult trading conditions for the industry during this time, Multimodal has seen a phenomenal rate of growth on entering its fifth year, with a rise of 230% in visitor attendance and the exhibition growing bigger in size and content by 245%

Multimodal was launched with the principal aim to provide the UK & Irish cargo-owning community with a long awaited ‘one stop shop’ where they can compare suppliers, routes and modes, gain invaluable information crucial to helping them become more efficient and effective and enable them to network with other cargo owners.
