Broadband provider Hyperoptic has expanded its fleet with new Volkswagen Crafter models.

The new vans will be used to help lay super-fast fibre optic cables across the UK.

Supplied by Van Centres at Cordwallis Heathrow and Imperial Commercials Derby, 11 liveried Crafters have already been delivered with 18 more scheduled for later in the year.

Hyperoptic will add new Transporter and Caddy models to the fleet in 2018.

The broadband company used Transporter vans in its fleet last year and was so happy with their performance, it became one of the early adopters of the Crafter.

Cathie Bray, Hyperoptic fleet manager, said: “With the growth of our business, the reliability of the Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles brand made the choice easy. Our new livery looks incredible on all the vehicles we have, especially the new Crafters. The service and aftercare support we get from our two main suppliers, Cordwallis and Imperial Commercials, is outstanding and we are looking forward to seeing how Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles brings new advances to its range of vehicles.”

David Hanna, head of fleet for Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, added: “Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles is pleased to be working with a new player that’s growing year-on-year with a fleet of vans that suits. Our Working With You promise is our guarantee to every operator, however big or small, that we will tailor a package for them and their evolving needs, so they can concentrate on the business of developing their business, without worrying about their transport requirements.”
