The IntraLogisteX Exhibition has been branded a massive success with a big uplift in visitor numbers over last year.

The event got off to a strong start on the first day with exhibitors reporting a high level of enquiries and that was matched on the second day. IntraLogisteX has grown substantially since last year with more than 70 leading suppliers of logistics equipment and IT systems exhibiting at the show this year.
