Pressure on faster deliveries and lower costs is driving retailers and carriers to seek pragmatic solutions in logistics and fulfilment. EDelivery Conference 2026 arrives in that environment with content and exhibitors focused on improving delivery operations and customer outcomes.
Practical information for EDelivery Conference 2026 in Birmingham
The event runs from 19 to 20 May 2026 at the NEC Birmingham - National Exhibition Centre. The format links three experiences: the IR B2B Ecomm Conference, eDelivery Expo at Multimodal and IRX Digital, combining in-person and online participation.
Program structure and what to expect
The program pairs a peer-led B2B conference, a delivery and fulfilment expo embedded in Multimodal, and IRX Digital’s online sessions. That mix allows attendees to see applied technologies live, attend practical demos and follow targeted webinars that expand the in-person agenda.
Who attends and which companies will be there
Attendees include delivery managers, ecommerce operations leaders and distribution centre heads. Exhibitors range from logistics hardware vendors to route-optimisation software providers, couriers and warehouse operators, all addressing last-mile delivery, returns handling and delivery experience.
Key figures to gauge scale
The IRX Digital webinar series attracts up to 400 attendees, a useful reference for the size of the online audience connected to the event. The NEC Birmingham hosts the face-to-face components linked to Multimodal and eDelivery Expo.
Commercial prospecting tactics for EDelivery Conference 2026
Target contacts by operational role. Build a priority list of 10 target companies and send concise outreach messages of 60-80 words including a one-page use case and a proposed 20-minute demo slot. Offer fixed demo times at your stand and share a live calendar link. After meetings, follow up with measurable outcomes and a time-limited pilot proposal.
Practical advice for visitors
Bring operational metrics: current delivery times, cost per shipment and return rates. Concrete route examples and warehouse capacity figures move technical conversations faster than generic pitches. Use IRX Digital sessions to shortlist suppliers before confirming in-person meetings.
EDelivery Conference 2026 provides a hybrid setting to evaluate delivery and fulfilment solutions. Check the agenda and secure participation at https://internetretailingexpo.com/#/ to book demos and plan meetings at NEC Birmingham.
