The RTX Knowledge Zone will be bringing together industry experts, trade associations, government organisations and fleet operators to bring topical issues to life.

From road safety and employee wellbeing, through to policy debates, AI and future fleet technology – there is something for everyone.

Some highlights include:

  • Keynote opening address from David Honeyford MLA.
  • The ‘RTX Big Debate – Future HGV Technology’: a fantastic opportunity to hear directly from the truck manufacturers about the latest truck technology on the market, with the ability to put your questions to the experts live at the event!
  • ‘Talking Trailers’ – learn about what’s trending in the trailer sector and explore innovative designs that will bring efficiency to your operation.
  • ‘The evolving landscape:  trade in Northern Ireland under the Windsor Framework’ – led by the RHA, this session looks at how the road freight and logistics space can continue to evolve and adapt, and what it needs to keep driving forward Northern Ireland's economic growth.
  • ‘AI in your business’ - Learn about the business realities and leadership challenges of introducing AI-based predictive maintenance systems to fleets and how operators can use these to improve availability, reduce operating costs, and cut carbon emissions.
  • Logistics UK explores why wellbeing is not only good for drivers, but also good for business.
  • ‘Delivering decarbonisation’ – The RHA sets out the challenges facing operators as they transition towards net-zero, but also helps you understand the options available for your fleet and opportunities to explore.
  • Belfast Harbour Police and the PSNI will both be on hand to provide key guidance on safer lorry movements.
  • ‘From pump prices to profit’: practical strategies for controlling fuel spend in volatile markets.
The inaugural RTX Northern Ireland is designed with an ‘all about the truck’ ethos and firmly focused on the needs of HGV fleet operators and the businesses that support them.

With a stellar line‑up of exhibitors confirmed - and more joining daily - the expo is fast becoming the go‑to gathering point for HGV operators with scores of well-known operators already registered to attend.

Major organisations already planning to join the event include ABP Linden Foods, Allen Logistics NI, Clearway Group, Derry Group, Eakin Bros, Hutchinson Feeds, Manfreight, Maxi Haulage, McBurney, McCulla Ireland, Monaghan Freight, Montgomery Transport, Translink, Woodside Haulage and WS Dennison, among many others.

With such a diverse mix of organisations under one roof, attendees can look forward to invaluable networking opportunities, fresh insights and the chance to stay ahead in an increasingly competitive landscape.

RTX Northern Ireland is being delivered by the experienced team behind the flagship Road Transport Expo held annually in Warwickshire, England and the recently launched RTX Scotland in Glasgow. For this new Northern Ireland edition, the organisers are working in partnership with respected Irish publications Export & Freight and Fleet Transport, both bringing extensive insight to the show’s development.
