Green Fleet Magazine is launching a revitalized awards program at this year’s Green Fleet Conference & Expo in Schaumburg, Ill. Oct. 29-30. The magazine is choosing to end its relationship with the 100 Best Fleets award program, which includes “The Green Fleet Awards.” The magazine and conference are also not associated with the North American Green Fleet Forum.
“While we’ve had a relationship with this program for several years, after much consideration we’d decided to create an awards program at the Green Fleet Conference that we can truly call our own. With a revamped awards presentation at the event, we will always strive to recognize fleets and other professionals who exemplify outstanding sustainability efforts and have made significant contributions to furthering fleet efficiencies,” said Green Fleet Conference Chair Robert Brown.
