Fleet Assist to host open day

Fleet Assist are opening their doors to leasing companies and their garage network at a special open day next week.

Hosted on April 30 and supported by Citroen, the event builds on the organisation’s first open day of 2012.

Management-level attendance will include Agility Fleet, Alphabet, Days Contract Hire, Fleet Hire, Grosvenor Contracts Leasing, Hitachi Capital Vehicle Solutions, JCT600 Contracts, Lex Autolease, Marshall Leasing, TCH Leasing, Tusker, Venson Automotive Solutions, Windsor Vehicle Leasing and Zenith.

Currently almost 150 garage representatives are planning to attend the open day.

They will participate in group question and answer sessions with leasing company representatives, discuss key trends and operational issues, have one-to-one discussions with individual leasing companies and meet the Fleet Assist team.

Exhibiting will be a number of Fleet Assist’s strategic partners, including Total, Autodata, BEN, Bosch, the Institute of the Motor Industry, Rent to Repair, Thule and Vehicle Visuals.

Vincent St Claire, Commercial Director at Fleet Assist, said: “This year we are focusing on the ‘meet the fleet’ element, as feedback from our garages clearly highlights a strong desire to have increased interaction with our leasing company customers.

“The fleet market is all about partnerships and companies and their suppliers working hand-in-hand with each other to deliver an even better mutually beneficial service.

“Bringing together the two sides of the Fleet Assist business – our leasing company customers and our garage network – will deliver further benefits to all parties nationwide.”
