The SCALA Annual Supply Chain Debate, held in association with the CILT, brings together 150 supply chain delegates from manufacturing, retail and 3PL to discuss a burning industry issue and this year will be asking:
“Are 3PLs the heroes of the supply chain? Who is really driving supply chain innovations and improvements in 2026?”
Held at the prestigious Manufacturing Technology Centre in Coventry, the Debate will explore the evolving role of third‑party logistics providers and challenge long‑held assumptions about where innovation, improvement and real progress originate.

Gavin Chappell, VP Supply Chain, Food & GM, ASDA
