On November 12th, 2024, Grayson Thermal Systems had the pleasure of hosting its renowned Grayson Curry Night, an evening that has become a cornerstone event in the UK bus and coach industry calendar.
Held in Birmingham — our home city — on the opening evening of Euro Bus Expo, the event brought together over 60 valued customers, colleagues, partners, and friends to share an evening of authentic Indian cuisine at one of the city’s most celebrated curry houses.
What began over 20 years ago as a spontaneous meal among four friends has evolved into a hotly anticipated industry tradition. More than just a dinner, the Grayson Curry Night has become an occasion where relationships are strengthened, ideas exchanged, and successes celebrated.
“Being the tenth edition we have hosted is not only an opportunity for us to give back to our valued customers and colleagues, but is also a testament to our unique approach to business.” Matthew Hateley, Head of European Sales and Marketing
This year’s gathering reflected the essence of collaboration and community, with guests from across the UK bus and coach sector enjoying lively conversations, laughter, and reflections on shared achievements while looking ahead to the future.
Matthew Hateley, Head of European Sales and Marketing, commented: “It is a real source of pride that we can host our Curry Night and bring together so many different organisations and individuals for a fantastic evening and a real taste of Birmingham. Being the tenth edition we have hosted is not only an opportunity for us to give back to our valued customers and colleagues, but is also a testament to our unique approach to business.
“We have the privilege of working across multiple facets of the UK bus and coach sector, from providing market-leading efficient HVAC solutions for OEMs to delivering aftermarket servicing and support for operators. That trust has been built over more than four decades and we hold these relationships dear.
“Our Curry Night not only strengthens these relationships but also reaffirms our commitment to working collaboratively with all stakeholders in the industry. We’d like to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who attended—here’s to continuing the Curry Night tradition for decades to come!”
