There are now fewer than 20 stands left for this year’s BULKEX as there has been extremely strong interest early on. Exhibition stands are £495.00 for members and £595.00 for non-members and those interested in taking a stand at the two-day event in October are advised to contact the MHEA early to ensure they obtain their preferred location.

You can contact the MHEA by calling 01787 226995 or by emailing secretary@mhea.co.uk.
