Two big names in the downstream oil industry have secured their places at FPS EXPO 2015. Bulk fuel logistics companies, Brit European and Norbert Dentressangle Tankers are the latest companies to confirm their attendance at FPS EXPO.

Spaces have filled faster than ever for this year’s event, which takes place at the Harrogate International Centre on 22-23 April 2015. Such has been the demand for space from suppliers to the UK heating oil and downstream energy industry, that the decision has been made to extend into a further exhibition hall.

Dawn Shakespeare, FPS Marketing and Events Manager says, “FPS EXPO is always extremely popular because of the diverse range of industry experts that exhibit at the show but 2015 looks set to be even more successful than our record-breaking 2014 event.  Securing Brit European, Norbert Dentressangle Tankers and tyre wholesaler Treadsetters is fantastic.”

“Other companies exhibiting for the first time include, Applied Pumps Limited, Cleansing Services, Paul Read Print, European Automation Projects, Samoa Limited and KDC Contractors Limited.  This year we have so much to offer visitors to the show. We have moved into Hall A to offer more exhibitors and more space for the vehicle manufacturers.

“Another first for FPS EXPO is our visitor and exhibitor reception on the first evening of the show which will give exhibitors and visitors the opportunity to stay longer at the show and offer more networking opportunities.  We’ve done this to create more time that can be devoted to exhibitors and visitors.  The Awards dinner is not being held in 2015 but this means we can really make the most of the Driver of the Year and Depot of the Year awards by presenting each award at the winner’s depot.

“Having a first night exhibitor and visitor drinks reception on the opening night of FPS EXPO 2015 means that lots of exhibitors and visitors can stay longer on the first day of the show and make the most of this fantastic opportunity, and individuals will now have a chance to network on an informal basis.

“More than half of our exhibiting companies have announced that they will introduce new products and services at the show — everything from new tankers, testing equipment, safety equipment, new computer software and oil storage equipment to all the ancillary equipment that goes with them.

“This is all good news for visitors to the show, who will benefit from exploring the extensive array of new and innovative products on display, compare the latest developments in tankers and oil distribution industry equipment, explore new technology, learn from industry experts, and talk with manufacturers — and each other — face to face.  The size and scope of the show floor, cutting-edge educational sessions and new product and technology launches will be unmatched. It is a testament to the effectiveness of the event that demand for exhibition space at FPS EXPO 2015 is still incredibly high with just weeks to go and we are even getting enquiries now for the 2016 show which is for the first time due to take place at the new Liverpool Exhibition Centre.”
