The Agility suite of services for event organisers and exhibitors includes on-site event materials storage, offloading and reloading of vehicles, domestic and overseas collection with customs clearance assistance, direct-to-stand venue deliveries, courier service management, and licensed equipment hire with a qualified operator.

David Richards, European regional director for Agility Fairs & Events, said: “We have been working with ExCeL since 2012, and our on-site presence gives us an unrivalled knowledge of the facility. This win demonstrates our successful track record of delivering world-class logistics services at ExCeL. We look forward to continuing to work in partnership for the benefit of the venue’s event organisers and exhibitors.”

Paul Brindley, executive director of ExCeL Venue Services, said, “Agility’s global experience and expert local knowledge are the best in the business. I am delighted that we are continuing to work in close partnership. Our shared passion for exceptional events will help to create great outcomes for event organizers, exhibitors, contractors and visitors in 2017 and beyond.”

The win follows Agility’s recent ISO 14001 and ISO 20121 certifications for environmental management and event sustainability.
