Multimodal 2025, the UK and Ireland’s premier freight transport, logistics, and supply chain management event, took place between June 17th and 19th at the NEC Birmingham.
The show united over 300 businesses with solutions across all segments of the event, to share their products, innovations and technologies with budget holders and delegates.
The logistics industry is witnessing significant developments, with trends demonstrating increased adoption of digital platforms, automation and AI, alongside sustainable practices. This event made the perfect hub to discuss these changes.
We had three outstanding clients at the show, ready to showcase their brands, products and services! In this blog, we explore some of the design features and elements that contributed to their success.
Seabridge
Service Plan: Free-Hire Pro | Stand size: 12m x 8m | Space Type: Space Only
Seabridge, a leading global provider of logistics and shipping services, was among our clients at this event.
The quality of this exhibition stand really speaks for itself. It’s bold, impactful, and impossible to miss in the hall. The left wall is reminiscent of the company’s shipping containers and vans, which increases brand recall and recognisability among industry professionals. The centre and right-hand wall provides insightful information for budget holders, emphasised with backlit graphics. A stand-alone edge-lit acrylic creates a point of interest and differentiation on the stand, which is key for increasing memorability.
The Seabrige team is always very pleased with their exhibition stand. Last year, the company shared the following review:
Once again, I cannot speak highly enough of the service & the stand that we have from Quadrant2Design, absolutely outstanding.
Cosco Shipping
Service Plan: Free-Hire Pro | Stand size: 4m x 2.5m | Space Type: Shell Scheme
Cosco Shipping was situated just across the hall, with a vibrant and eye-catching design! This stand is popular among delegates for its bright colours and clean aesthetic.
The rotating header and high-level branding guaranteed visibility and towered over neighbouring stands. This was particularly powerful, as this stand is situated along a row of lower, closed-off shell scheme stands, making Cosco Shipping’s Shell Scheme Transformation all the more noticeable.
Agency Sector Management
Service Plan: Free-Hire Pro | Stand size: 4m x 4m | Space Type: Space Only
Our third and final client on Multimodal is Agency Sector Management, a non-profit organisation that provides software and representation for freight forwarders in the UK.
Agency Sector Management had a minimalistic yet impactful design at Multimodal. The high-level branding ensured visibility, while clear messaging was highly informative to prospective visitors. The fascia allowed for ASM to incorporate an additional wall, creating more space for imagery and a designated meeting space!
Sustainability
The logistics industry has been making significant improvements in sustainability, which was noticeable at this event.
As each of our exhibition stands is completely reusable, modular, and reconfigurable, our exhibitors are never caught out exhibiting a sustainable brand under an unsustainable exhibition stand.
Here are some previous stand configurations from our existing clients: Seabridge and Cosco Shipping.
Closing Thoughts
It has been wonderful to see how well Multimodal 2025 has served our exhibitors. Though the industry is making moves with automation and AI, gathering in person has never been more valuable. The platform served as the perfect location for professionals to network, generate leads, and make valuable connections.
