IOR Anniversary Networking Event in association with the London Refrigeration Society.

On the 8th December 1899, the IOR was formed at a meeting chaired by R Leonard with 16 interested individuals. Initially known as the Cold Storage and Ice Association, reflecting the early days of refrigeration in the UK, which was based on ice imports.
