Prohire becomes Van Excellence recognised partner

Commercial fleet provider Prohire has become a Recognised Partner of the Van Excellence scheme.

The scheme, initiated and developed by Freight Transport Association (FTA) in alliance with some of the UK’s best van operators, sets out to raise standards within the industry, improving the general perception of vans and light commercial vehicles and enhancing the reputation of organisations operating such fleets.

Head of vans and LCVs at FTA, Mark Cartwright said: “We are delighted to welcome Prohire as a Recognised Partner of the scheme. I believe this partnership helps to support the company’s proactive approach and is a good example of a collaborative attitude – one that can further spread the reach of Van Excellence.”  As a Recognised Partner of the scheme, Prohire will actively support customers to ensure they are in a position to adhere to the principles of Van Excellence.

Sales director at Prohire, Andrew Morley, said: “We are delighted to become a Recognised Partner of this FTA accredited Van Excellence scheme. I believe this further accreditation is an endorsement of the approach we take with customers.  It recognises our capability as a business to pro-actively support customers in relation to compliance along with our consultative approach to specifying vehicles that are appropriate for their operation.”

Morley addws: “Within our existing customer base we have van operators who depend on our advice in terms of initial vehicle specification right through to whole-life operating cost. The Van Excellence partnership reflects the personal service that customers can expect with Prohire. As such, this partnership is a perfect fit.”
