Trafford Park is the largest industrial park in Europe and a vital part of Greater Manchester’s economy. It is also the single largest source of carbon emissions in the city region. 

Bee Net Zero | Trafford Park is a partnership between Trafford Council, Greater Manchester Combined Authority and the Growth Company. It is designed to support businesses on the park to reduce emissions, improve efficiency and strengthen long‑term resilience. 

This project is part‑funded by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund. 

To help businesses take advantage of these opportunities, Trafford Council, GMCA and the Growth Company have established a dedicated support programme for Trafford Park businesses. 

The programme is designed to help you understand your carbon footprint and put in place practical, bespoke solutions that support both your commercial and sustainability objectives. 

Our partner Green Economy, part of the Growth Company, has appointed a dedicated Key Account Manager to work directly with Trafford Park businesses. 

Support includes: 

• on‑site carbon footprinting and review 

• a bespoke carbon reduction action plan 

• one‑to‑one support from a Carbon Reduction Consultant 

• access to finance and funding opportunities 

• workforce training and skills development
