The Material Handling Equipment Distributors Association (MHEDA) informed its members that they will be delaying opening the convention registration and booth sales until early February when a decision will be made on the 2021 MHEDA Convention that is slated to be April 24 – 28, 2021 in Austin, Texas.
MHEDA officials said in an emailed statement sent to members on January 14th that due to the continued threat of the COVID-19 virus they will be delaying the opening of registrations and booth sales. MHEDA will continue to monitor the situation through the month of January and will keep members posted in early February as to whether they will move forward with an in-person event in April, potentially move to a later date or offer an alternate, virtual solution.
“Our primary goal is the safety of our members and the MHEDA team”, said Liz Richards, CEO of MHEDA. “We are extremely grateful for your support and thank you for your involvement in MHEDA Richards added.
