SOLEX 2021 CANCELLED

Solex 2019 Wednesday 100719_GTN265.jpg

After much discussion with LOFA Members, SOLEX exhibitors and visitors, LOFA have made the decision to cancel the SOLEX Exhibition this year and re-schedule for July 2022.

 

LOFA's Marketing Manager Gina Hinde told GTN Xtra:  "We have obtained feedback from, and listened to, lots of views from our exhibitors and their customers and no one we have spoken to feels comfortable attending an exhibition this year.

 

"Every year we look forward to connecting with exhibitors, buyers and industry professionals and although there are positive signs that events may be able to restart sometime this year, thanks to the Government’s “way forward” plan, the current restrictions will compound the challenges faced in organising this event,  and unlike other exhibitions we are unable to move the SOLEX Show to a later date in the year, because of the long lead times required for orders.

 

"We wanted to make the right decision for everyone involved and we did not want to continue with a show that would not be up to our customary high standards and so, have decided not to run SOLEX in 2021 but move the exhibition to July 2022 when we can come back bigger, better and hopefully Covid free!

 

"We know that this will come as an enormous disappointment to many, so in place of the in-person SOLEX exhibition we are planning another VIRTUAL SOLEX this year, and we will share our plans for this in the coming weeks."
