Northgate Vehicle Hire has refurbished its Banbury site and appointed Kam Durall as branch manager.

The appointment will see Durall build on Northgate’s reputation for flexibility and excellent customer service in Banbury, to spearhead further growth in the local area.

The branch refurbishment has seen improved customer and employee facilities introduced, and now features a comfortable reception room for workshop and rental customers, a team of 15 members of staff and a fleet of almost 300 fuel-efficient vehicles.

Durall said: "I’m thrilled to be joining Northgate as Branch Manager for Banbury. It is a great time to be joining the company due to the rapid pace of change and significant growth it is currently experiencing. I intend to put my many years of experience behind the position to ensure the branch delivers a quality service to our customers and that local businesses are aware of the flexible offering Northgate can deliver.”

Area operations manager, Graham Edden, added: “Kam has both enthusiasm and experience, leaving us confident that he will help drive development in the area and deliver flexible fleet solutions for Banbury businesses. The branch is performing extremely well – the investment in Kam’s appointment and the refurbishment is testimony to this success.”
