Choosing the right car leasing company to work with is a difficult choice for many new customers (personal or business).
With 100s of credit brokers, fleet management companies, finance companies and dealerships, there are an array of small, medium and large enterprise to work alongside for the supply and management of their new vehicles.
Notwithstanding the current economic situation, the pressures on the automotive industry and increasing regulation, our bespoke-industry still stands out as one of the hotbeds of the British economy. In an era of reduction, many leasing brokers are experiencing significant growth and development to the extent that some are now becoming household names…
In September 2018, the final shortlist for the “Best Small Leasing Broker” was announced and this included some fabulous businesses:
CarLease UK
Silverstone Fleet Management
New Vehicle Solutions
DFC NI
Concept Vehicle Leasing
KeyFleet
Cameron Clarke Leasing
Pike & Bambridge
Motorlet
What is perhaps underestimated is the extent to which many of our fellow leasing companies and businesses continue to develop and invest in order to provide a first-class experience to customers (while remaining cost competitive).
As part of this growth, new organisations have emerged to help promote our industry and ensure that higher standards of business practices are put in place. The Leasing Broker Federation, which is wholly owned by Business Car Manager, is an independent membership-only organisation which aims to increase the quality of our industry. With over 100 members, regular networking meetings a “Top 30” chart and annual awards, they have a powerful mechanism to help promote the contract hire and leasing marketplace. Unlike many industries, which hide behind closed doors and separate themselves from their customer-base, ours is one which sits firmly in the public domain.
Open and honest is very much the core value for most of our contemporaries and competitors.
Very proudly, CarLease UK received the award on the night and our Managing Director, Mike King, collected this on behalf of the team at CarLease UK.
Following another year of growth, this rewards our team for the hard-work, time and effort that they invest into the business. For our customers, existing and new, this demonstrates the quality of our business and provides complete comfort that their leasing transaction will be managed to the highest of standards. Perfection, for our business, is very much the floor as opposed to the ceiling. This drives us to make the experience better for our customers year on year. To be recognised by some of the leading figures in our industry (and the Leasing Broker Federation) is massively appreciated… Thank you to all of those who continue to support and work alongside our business.
