Leasedrive has won a three-year contract hire agreement to supply contract hire, accident management and grey fleet management services to the Matrix Group on a sole supply basis.

Roddy Graham, commercial director at Leasedrive, said: “The Matrix Group is expanding rapidly and its fleet policy had not grown in line with recent expansion. Over the last couple of months we have jointly worked on creating a new car scheme. The new fleet policy is properly structured and addresses the group’s previous duty of care concerns. The resulting move away from a cash allowance and mileage reimbursement approach to business mileage could see the fleet ultimately increase to around 200 vehicles.”

Simon Oldfield, finance director at the Matrix Group, commented: “Leasedrive impressed us with its no-nonsense, pro-active approach. It undertook extensive profiling before we jointly drew up the recommended new fleet approach, which will result in our eligible employees driving newer, safer and more economical cars appropriate to their job positions.

“Meanwhile, we can concentrate on fulfilling our growth strategies safe in the knowledge that Leasedrive is taking care of our fleet requirements and providing us with increased control to help us meet our duty of care responsibilities.”
