YARDX, a new logistics exhibition, is set to launch in the UK, dedicated solely to yard operations management, and Industrial Outdoor Storage (IOS).

Taking place on the 3rd and 4th of June 2025 at the NAEC, Stoneleigh, YARDX will offer a platform for logistics professionals looking to optimise, manage and maintain their yard operation.

In logistics and operations, a yard refers to an outdoor area where vehicles, trailers, heavy equipment, or stored goods are parked, loaded, unloaded, and maneuvered.

These yards are not limited to traditional logistics sites but also include large retail car parks, ports, and distribution centres.

YARDX is expected to attract a diverse range of professionals responsible for day-to-day yard management, logistics and supply chain operations.

The event will also appeal to professionals in sectors such as retail, automotive, manufacturing, logistics, ports, large-scale car parks, industrial outdoor storage facilities, and distribution centres.

Nairn Foster, Managing Director of YARDX, commented: “YARDX is very exciting as it’s a world-first, where the transport aspects of logistics intersect with storage and warehousing.

"At YARDX, visitors can source all the products and services they need, and we will provide thought leadership for FDs and Operations Directors, demonstrating how to enhance efficiencies, mitigate risks, and identify cost-saving opportunities.

"Our sustainability areas will showcase best practices in energy management, emissions reduction, and environmentally friendly yard solutions, offering a comprehensive overview of innovations that can future-proof their operations.

"From Yard Management Software to the nuts and bolts of tarmacking and line marking, it will all be at YARDX.”
