GF Cymru
Driving eMobility for fleets across WALES
After many years of hosting successful industry events we know the best way of achieving net zero fleet goals is through #collaboration. Electrifying and future-proofing any fleet is not straight-forward. Implementing a strategy to ensure that the right vehicles, technology and policy is put in place, is paramount and because all businesses across Wales are at different stages, there is still plenty of work to be done.
If your organisation runs a car, multiple cars, vans, trucks or a mixture of all, then you need to join us at GREENFLEET CYMRU. Listen to the speakers, engage with the experts, explore solutions and collaborate. Our experts can guide you on the gradual path to transition.
The event will have the same, relaxed and engaging format that we have become known for across our extensive GREENFLEET portfolio with keynote presentations, Q&As, voting and roundtable discussions, supported by experts showcasing innovative products, services and solutions.
We begin with a networking breakfast and an opening keynote from SMMT and the Association of Fleet Professionals (AFP) will also join us and many more organisations will be announced shortly.
With plenty of refreshment breaks, multiple networking opportunities and a delicious buffet lunch, RESERVE YOUR FREE PLACE NOW!

The event will feature a mix of keynote presentations, case studies, hosted table discussions, Q&A sessions, networking and more…
Format: A morning of engaging presentations, followed by open round table discussions. Lunch will split the proceedings before we resume for a session with the spotlight falling on the sponsors and experts.
