UKMHA Archies Awards

United Kingdom, Birmingham - October 15, 2022
On Saturday 15th October 2022, people from across the industry will gather at the Hilton Metropole in Birmingham to pay glittering tribute to the companies, teams and individuals who have done so much to innovate, raise standards and help operators work more effectively and safely.

The Archies 2022 will be the inaugural awards event for UKMHA, but the name is not the only thing that has changed.

We have revamped the format and will be introducing some brand-new award categories to represent the entire spectrum of materials handling and celebrate the ingenious products and invaluable people that make our industry what it is today.

The Archies will of course maintain the fun and showmanship audiences know and love. A celebrity host will compere the evening, which will also include a three-course dinner, entertainment and dancing well into the night.
