John Connolly, President of the MHEA, said: "In our 80th year, we're already excited about the standard of entries that we have received. We'd encourage all our members to have a go and enter these awards, as they are an excellent benchmark of the calibre of the bulk materials handling industry. This year, we have an excellent after-dinner speaker, in John Stiles, who will bring his own personalised witty take on life to the evening. Our 80th Anniversary Dinner and Excellence Awards will certainly be a night to remember."
