PRESS RELEASE: SDR sponsors keynote speech at All-Industry Conference

Specialist Driver Resourcing (SDR) is pleased to be sponsoring the Keynote Speech at the 2025 Builders’ Merchants Federation (BMF) All-Industry Conference in June.

Taking place in Barcelona, the All-Industry Conference is focusing on the theme ‘Building Tomorrow Together’, bringing merchants and building material suppliers together to discuss the challenges and opportunities the industry faces.

This year’s Keynote Speech is being given by Rebecca Adlington OBE, Great Britain’s most successful female swimmer. She became the first woman to take Olympic swimming gold for Great Britain in more than 40 years, won the 400m and 800m freestyle events, and has also won titles at the Commonwealth Games, European and World Championships.

She has since become a successful sports commentator and pundit, along with working tirelessly for charities and to promote swimming and sports.

Simon Pritchard, Managing Director of Specialist Driver Resourcing, said: “We are delighted to be sponsoring this year’s Keynote Speech at the All-Industry Conference. Rebecca is a fantastic sportsperson and we are sure her insights into the importance of focus and mental resilience in all walks of life will be inspirational.

“The conference as a whole will also be a fantastic opportunity for the whole industry to gather, network and discuss key issues that are relevant to us all.”
