Member only exclusive event

12 MAY 2026 | HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT, WESTMINSTER


The Cold Chain Federation is a unique and powerful voice for our industry. Each year we take that voice directly to the heart of Westminster, hosting our Parliamentary Reception within the Houses of Parliament.

This exclusive evening brings together senior leaders from across the cold chain with Ministers, MPs and peers, creating an important opportunity to showcase the vital role our sector plays in the UK economy, food security and pharmaceutical supply chains.

The 2026 reception will continue to support and promote our Cold Chain is Critical campaign. The event is both a celebration of the industry and a strategic lobbying initiative, helping decision makers better understand the scale, seriousness and future facing nature of the cold chain.

By attending, members play a direct role in strengthening the industry’s voice at the highest levels of government.

The Parliamentary Reception welcomes around 150 cold chain business leaders alongside invited Ministers, MPs and peers.

The evening combines:

  • High level industry networking
  • Engagement with policymakers
  • Advocacy for the cold chain sector
  • A professional yet relaxed reception setting

This is a free to attend, member only event. Places are strictly limited and allocated on a first come, first served basis. Attendance is limited to one ticket per member organisation.
