Modex 2016 is open for business

At 10 a.m. on Monday, April 4, Gregg Goodner, president of MHI welcomed attendees and exhibitors to Modex 2016, “the greatest supply chain show on earth.” Co-located with Supply Chain & Transportation USA (SC&T), Modex offers the best in materials handling, logistics, manufacturing, assembly and distribution.

This year’s installment of the show is the largest ever, according to Goodner, and encompasses more than 100 informational and educational seminars. The show’s Student Days and Young Professionals Network education track are both designed to help cultivate “the future of the material handling industry,” he added.

Michael Köhler, VP of Reed Exhibitions USA, welcomed everyone to the show and said SC&T is pleased to once again partner with MHI to put on a show that includes innovative products, technologies and educational opportunities. “We’re both proud and honored to be a part of this event,” said Köhler.

This year’s Modex expo features 850 exhibits and a broad scope of educational content that includes keynotes and show floor seminars. The combined event will offer a broad scope of educational content and insights while also giving attendees a first-hand look at the newest innovations in supply chain technology and equipment.

“The phrase ‘greatest supply chain show on earth’ accurately describes what attendees will experience here over the next four days,” Goodner said. “This is a great opportunity for everyone to get out there, engage with others, and learn from a broad scope of educational opportunities.”

Modex 2016 is scheduled to be held April 4-7, 2016 in Atlanta’s Georgia World Conference Center. The tradeshow will showcase the latest manufacturing, distribution and supply chain solutions in the material handling and logistics industry. Modern’s complete Modex coverage.
