2009 CV Show Cancelled

The 2009 CV Show at the Birmingham NEC has been cancelled.

The decision is not entirely surprising – just a couple of days ago I reported that exhibitor numbers had slumped with virtually  all van and truck manufacturers having pulled out.

Fleet News is now reporting that the show has been cancelled due to a lack of support by exhibitors for the concept of refocusing the event to be a transport engineering show.

Better luck for 2010 – hopefully the economy will have bottomed out by then and there maybe enough positive sentiment to generate some enthusiasm (and funding) to make the show viable.
