SDF/PSI 4th POTATO STORAGE DAY: 19 MAY 2027

SDF Agriculture Ltd and Potato Storage Insight are pleased to announce that they will be holding their fourth annual strategic Potato Storage Day on Wednesday 19 May 2027.

The event will be held at Leadenhall Farm, Holbeach St Marks, Lincs. PE12 8HB by kind permission of Dyson Farming, who are hosting us for the second year running. Further details are now available and are outlined below:

We are delighted to be joined by two new primary sponsors, Certis Belchim and Omnivent, and are currently seeking further event partners/exhibitors to take stand space at this storage-focused show. We have secured some additional space at Leadenhall to extend the exhibits to outside as well and are hoping to extend our event focus to novel, automated store filling and sorting systems.

Our programme for the event will take shape over the coming weeks and use the help of our contacts across the industry to bring you a focused technical event. The emphasis will be on delivery of practical solutions to further our collective knowledge and develop best practice. Trials data dissemination will form part of our output. Press contact has already been initiated to raise awareness of the event.

A 3m x 3m indoor stand, with a single 5A electrical socket, can be yours for £399 + VAT (2026 prices frozen). There are also larger outdoor stand spaces available (guide price £549 + VAT for 6m x 6m) for which a customised three phase electrical supply is available, subject to load limitations, at extra cost. Generators could be brought onto site by arrangement as an alternative. Please talk to us about your needs.

As with all our previous events, our primary target 'market' for Potato Storage Day is local potato businesses focusing on storage, but we welcome input from those within the wider industry. We will have refreshments on site from the 9.30 start and be offering our usual hog roast lunch free of charge to all registered visitors to end the proceedings that will run up to 2pm this year.

Our events over the last 3 years have seen a steady increase in visitor numbers, with the 140 attendees in 2026 forming a highly focused audience for engagement, discussion and debate on all aspects of storage. We hope with your help and our slightly extended event focus that we can do even better in May.

If you are willing to help to support this industry-targeted event by exhibiting, please contact us as soon as possible on the contacts below.
