Lombard Vehicle Management (LVM) has been
selected by national lawn treatment business GreenThumb to fund and
supply a fleet of 800 vans on exclusive basis.
Around 230 vehicles are to be delivered this
year and run on contract hire, mainly over three years and 45,000
miles.
The new vans, VW Caddy Maxi 1.9 Tdis, are
expected to reduce fuel consumption by 15 percent and CO2 emissions
by 25 percent over the existing fleet.
GreenThumb director David Griffiths commented:
“We were impressed by the Lombard team’s technical knowledge and
also how they could assist us throughout the contract on a
relationship basis.”
“The whole-life cost approach demonstrated
that we could make substantial savings yet actually improve our
fleet operation. The quality of service we have been given by
Lombard has been very high.”
The deal was handled by Rachel Moxey, Lombard
fleet manager for Cheshire and North Wales.
