The South African Association for Fleet Professionals (AFP) is proud to announce their inaugural colloquium for 2025: Navigating the Future: Strategic Insights for Tomorrow's Fleet Professionals powered by MasterDrive.
In an era of technological transformation and evolving business, fleet management is a more complex and, consequently, critical sector to prioritise. The upcoming AFP Colloquium will shed light on these topics. It will bring industry experts together to unpack strategic and successful approaches to fleet operations.
During the Colloquium important association and membership information will be shared by the AFP President, Eugene Herbert.
The keynote presentation will be hosted by Winstone Jordaan, the Founder and Managing Director of GridCars, on the topic of ‘Electrification Revolution: How EV Infrastructure is Transforming Fleet Operations and Sustainability.’
A panel discussion will assess how to ‘Build Resilient Fleet Operations: Innovation, Compliance, and Efficiency.’
