  • Three show halls, covering 61,223 sqm of floorspace
  • 215 educational sessions

  • 3% more registered attendees than at ProMat 2023
  • Attendees came from 143 countries 

ProMat 2025, an international trade show for the supply chain and logistics sectors, has concluded with the news that this year’s event was the biggest in its history.

According to event organisers MHI, the event’s overall registration count of 52,223 was 3% higher than the corresponding figure for 2023, which was the previous year in which ProMat was held.

On top of that, and re-enforcing the international status of ProMat, attendees this year hailed from 143 countries around the world.

“ProMat brings this industry together to connect and share the best equipment and technology, the leading trends, and the latest innovations,” says John Paxton, CEO, MHI.

“The success of ProMat 2025 is proof of the central role the supply chain plays across industries.”

The dominant trends at ProMat were automation, robotics, and artificial intelligence and their impact on end-to-end transparency and resiliency.

These new technologies work seamlessly in conjunction with traditional material handling solutions that were also on display to make efficient and orchestrated operations possible.

“We’re seeing a big acceleration in the adoption of these technologies in manufacturing and supply chain operations,” says Paxton. “The variety of solutions on display this year were evidence of this trend.”

Highlights of the event included ProMat Supply Chain Conference sessions, which included 215 educational seminars and four keynotes; 2025 MHI Innovation Awards, which were held during MHI Industry Night; and the Women in Supply Chain Conference, which was attended by nearly 200 supply chain professionals.
