Reflex Vehicle Solutions has opened a new £100,000, two-acre depot at Waltham Abbey in Essex to cope with its growing customer base in the south east.

The car and van rental company, which operates in the UK and Ireland, has a client base which includes DHL, Carillion and Balfour Beatty.

“With the addition of Waltham Abbey to our network we are able to provide London and the south east with a broader, stronger and more efficient vehicle supply solution,” explained Steve Greenwood, operations director at Reflex.

“Our plan is still focused on having only a handful of strategic distribution points which can logistically field and manage all of our customer requirements with ever increasing ease.”

Reflex doubled in size during 2008 with demand for its services growing from 4,000 rentals to 8,500.

The company was also named as the UK’s 21st fastest growing company by the Sunday Times in December 2008.
