WTX isn’t built around crowded expo halls, endless walking, or collecting business cards you’ll never look at again. It’s designed to make every conversation count through curated meetings, intentional networking, and real discussions with the people shaping the future of fleet.

And with only 10 fleet manager spots remaining, this year’s event is already shaping up to be one you don’t want to hear about after the fact.

What is Work Truck Exchange (WTX)?

Instead of walking endless show floors hoping to stumble into the right conversation, WTX is a curated experience built around making your time count through:

  • Pre-scheduled 1:1 meetings with supplier hosts tailored to your fleet needs
  • Interactive roundtable discussions with industry peers
  • Focused networking opportunities built for real conversations and relationship-building

Our annual trivia luncheon returns with prizes and a little friendly competition, and LEGEND is bringing back the attendee-favorite axe-throwing van because sometimes the best stress reliever is hurling an axe in a van with your closest fleet friends.

Fleet managers attending will also connect directly with companies you want to connect with, including:

  • Adrian
  • Blue Bird Body Company
  • Fleetworthy Solutions
  • Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co
  • Kingbee Vans
  • Legend Fleet
  • Nissan North America Inc

And this is just the start. We’re still reviewing additional supplier host applications, with more companies expected to join the lineup. If your company wants to be part of the conversations happening at WTX, now is the time to reach out.

So, Why Should YOU Apply?

WTX is intentionally built around quality over quantity, creating a more focused environment where every meeting and conversation is designed to deliver value long after the event ends.

Kevin Ryder, Director Fleet Compliance & Maintenance at Centuri Group, highlighted the opportunity to spend “quality networking time with other fleet managers and relevant vendors,” adding that the format made it easy to continue conversations with suppliers after the event.

Joe Calabrese, President of Air Graphix, Inc., praised the event’s “quality of attendees, not quantity approach,” along with the ability to connect with vendors without competing companies crowding the same space.
