The absence of logistics from the draft Industrial Strategy, addressing the ‘power problem’ and co-location of beds and sheds, were just some of the topics discussed at the Last Mile Conference 2024.

The event took place at BAFTA 195 Piccadilly on 17 October, and featured keynote speakers, panels, information sessions, networking, breakfast, lunch and a drinks reception. Times Radio and BBC presenter Chloe Tilley chaired the event.

The forum is a key event on the calendar of the warehousing and logistics sector bringing together an impressive range of stakeholders to attend, but also sponsor and sport. Leading warehouse company GLi was event partner with CoStar, eSmart Networks, LoopNet and Mountford Pigott all associate partners. Supporting partners were BPF, KSP, Landways, London Borough of Southwark, London Borough of Waltham Forest, Marbank Construction, Patrizia, SMR Architects, TRC, UKWA and WSP.

The event is wholly organised by White Label, from the co-ordination of the programme and sourcing of sponsors and speakers, to all the pre and post event marketing and organising the venue and catering.

Keynote speaker Grant Lonsdale, Director of Market Analytics at CoStar, said: “It was an excellent event, it went very smoothly and had interesting content.”
