Business News Wales Business News Wales - the home of independent Welsh business news. Welsh business stories, updates, features and analysis from every sector and region.

Showcasing the Very Best of Welsh Business! In creating Business News Wales, we aim to provide a voice for all Welsh businesses. With no political views or editorial agenda, our goal is to create the number one source of business news in Wales, creating a level playing field for every business no matter of its size. If your business has a story to tell, we’ll give you a voice! The world of online media has changed. Over the years we have seen a transition from direct advertising to a more content led media model. The decline of print, the rise of the Internet and more recently the emergence of social media and mobile all have contributed to the recent changes in the way we find, read and share our news. With over 42 distinct communication channels our aim is to showcase the very best of Welsh businesses to both the internal Welsh market, but also to those businesses looking to invest in Wales.

A study by AMION, commissioned by Cadw, found that Wales’ historic environment generates more than £738m a year and supports almost 18,000 jobs. It also delivers over £107m in social value, and volunteers give more than 902,000 hours a year.

Around £40 a year back in drivers' pockets, just by checking the map before filling up.

Near real-time petrol and diesel prices now appear on Google Maps in the UK for the first time, powered by the government's Fuel Finder scheme. Around 99% of fuel sold on UK roads is now covered.

For businesses running fleets and vans, that transparency adds up quickly.

A third Menai crossing is back on the table, and new road infrastructure will form part of the long-term fix for the M4 around Newport.

Deputy Minister for Transport Mark Hooper confirmed in the Senedd that development work on the crossing restarts immediately, while an 18-month study will examine road-based solutions around Newport, with an ambition to cut peak-hour M4 traffic by up to around 10%.
