Home Delivery World 2023

The Manufacturing & Supply Chain Conference & Exhibition and Co-Located Events will take place again on the 20th of April 2023. This event will serve as a national forum for manufacturers and operators involved throughout the associated supply chains from across the UK to gather to discuss pressing issues facing the industry. It is now firmly established as a ‘must-attend’ annual event, which successfully connects key stakeholders across the full spectrum of British manufacturing, including aerospace, automotive, chemical & pharmaceutical, construction, defence, electronics, energy, food & drink, nuclear, plastics, security, steel, space and textiles.

New approaches and technology have been introduced in recent years that have created significant organisational and process improvements. The aim of the conference is to showcase such innovative approaches and to disseminate the cutting edge research that underpins them. The conference will be of interest to senior management, established practicing engineers and researchers together with those that are much earlier in their careers. Delegates have registered from leading food, pharmaceutical, medical, chemical, electronics and engineering manufacturing sectors.

Experts usually claim that supply chain management is about delivering the right quality at the lowest cost, with the agreed service level. Well, not anymore. Digital revolution is creating a whole new paradigm for what used to be the supply chain, where technology is rendering the old fundamentals of supply chain management obsolete. Industry 4.0 brought a new vision on supply chain system, hence companies are challenged to rethink and redesign their craft to keep track with the novel contemporary trends.
