CPL Distribution is taking delivery of 33 new light and medium-weight commercial vehicles on contract hire from Fraikin.

Each of the new vehicles supplied by Fraikin is covered for full servicing, maintenance, repair and MOTs, carried out by a combination of Fraikin’s own branch network and approved third-party repairers.

The contract hire agreement also includes road fund licensing, tyres and 24/7 emergency roadside assistance.

“Contract hire works well for our business as it ensures fixed running costs and a single point of contact, which is especially important as our fleet is widely spread across 32 different depots nationwide,” explained Mandy Gill, transport manager at CPL Distribution.

At the end of the five year contract, CPL Distribution can return the vehicles to Fraikin.
