The annual Travis Perkins Hire Innovation Day at Stadium MK, the home of Milton Keynes Dons Football Club, saw more than 20 suppliers, including Kubota, Altrad Belle and Hilti, showcase the latest products entering the market.
More than 400 Travis Perkins Hire colleagues attended the event and over £2,200 was raised through a raffle for Alzheimer’s Society, the company’s nominated charity.
The business’ re-hire offering was on full display, with GAP Hire Solutions and Reconomy showcasing products and services available through Travis Perkins Hire branches.
Managing director of Travis Perkins Hire, Ian Sharman-Jones, said: “It was a superb day with great energy in the room and lots of meaningful conversations happening between colleagues and suppliers, who provided outstanding support.
“It was a fantastic opportunity for colleagues to upskill their knowledge and ensure that they return to branches armed with all the information around new products and latest trends to help our customers with their site solutions for their projects.”
