The background

BevExpo started in 2016, with ambitious plans to bring back a UK based industry exhibition and seminar programme for the brewing supply chain. Having not been done for years, the client approached Apex to make it happen for them.

In 2018, and returning for the second time, this year’s BevExpo aimed to be even bigger and better. And, yet again, Apex was responsible for the overall event management.
