MHEDA offers virtual 2020 Convention

Posted on Apr 17, 2020 in Nuts & Bolts

The Material Handling Equipment Distributors Association (MHEDA) has announced a Virtual Convention due to the cancelation of the May 2-6, 2020 convention in Orlando, Florida.

Liz Richards

“For the first time in MHEDA’s history, we were forced to make the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 annual convention in light of the impact of COVID-19. While it’s not the same as being together in person, we hope that the Virtual Convention will provide you with a bit of the learning and connecting you would enjoy at a live convention. said Liz Richards CEO of MHEDA.

“This series will feature 2020 MHEDA convention speakers presenting and answering questions live from the audience. Space is limited for the live sessions and a recording will be available on-demand. The sessions are FREE for MHEDA members (optional registration fee respectfully requested and non-member fee applies). Richards added.
