Futuroad Expo 2024, sub-Saharan Africa's premier trade fair for the truck, bus and commercial vehicle industry, will also play a major part in this combined event. The exhibition floor will feature an impressive array of global commercial vehicle manufacturers, including Isuzu, Sinotruk, JAC Motors, Stellantis, Iveco, Ford, FAW, Tata and Mahindra.

The comprehensive three-day expo programme also features the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT) Conference, which will take place throughout the exhibition in the Black Eagle. Co-hosted by CILT Namibia, South Africa and Zimbabwe, this event will unite industry leaders and professionals to discuss vital developments in the transport and logistics sector.
