CRP Courier Fair

29th January 2024 / Posted by Sarah Meertens

We are just over one week away from our Courier Fair! On Wednesday 7th February 4:30-6pm, 10 – 15 industry leading zero emission couriers – including local and national operators – will exhibit at our in-person fair to meet and build relationships with local authorities, BIDs, strategic agencies and landowners. The Courier Fair is developed as part of our Defra-funded Smarter Greener Logistics (SGL) programme. 

Due to a demand for faster, convenient and more efficient deliveries and a booming ecommerce industry, the Courier, Express and Parcel (CEP) market is growing significantly. Our Courier Fair provides an exciting opportunity for logistics operators and members of the public sector to build closer relationships, share learnings and identify ways to collaborate.  

The event will kick off with a short speech from City of London’s Councillor Mary Durcan, before the 1-1 sit-down discussions between operators and local authorities, BIDs, landowners and strategic agencies begin. 

We have sign-ups from a wide array of visitors and the fair is promising to be a very fruitful event. We are excited for the new connections, opportunities and learnings the fair will bring as we work towards a thriving zero emission courier sector!
