The logistics and warehousing industry is preparing for the return of a major team‑based diversity event that promotes equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) across the sector. Now in its seventh year, the event invites professionals from across the supply chain to participate in a day of collaborative physical, mental, and skill‑based challenges designed to highlight the business benefits of diverse and inclusive workforces.
Since its launch in 2019, the challenge has become an established fixture in the industry’s calendar, drawing participation from a broad range of logistics professionals and organisations. The format combines team collaboration with friendly competition to demonstrate how varied perspectives and inclusive cultures contribute to operational success and innovation.
Industry stakeholders emphasise that the event provides more than just entertainment. It offers an opportunity for networking, sharing best practices, and reinforcing commitments to EDI goals within companies. Teams typically consist of employees from different backgrounds collaborating to solve tasks that mirror real‑world workplace dynamics.
Beyond internal team building, the challenge serves as a platform for companies to publicly showcase their efforts toward creating inclusive workplaces, which in turn supports recruitment, retention, and engagement strategies within a sector facing long‑standing workforce diversity challenges.
Organisers also highlight the broader industry impact of hosting such events. Bringing together professionals across different levels and functions encourages dialogue on diversity topics and encourages participants to adopt inclusive practices back in their day‑to‑day operations.
