Venson Automotive Solutions has received accreditation from the Logistics UK Van Excellence scheme, which recognises excellence in operational standards.

It is the sixth year running that fleet leasing and management company has achieved the standard.

Managed by Logistics UK, the Van Excellence scheme is designed by some of the UK’s most respected van operators in the UK.

The Van Excellence Code sits at the heart of this certificate, offering fleet operators' guidance in van operations.

Sharon Mitchell, joint head of consulting and standards at Logistics UK, said: “Venson has proved it is committed to operating its fleet to the highest standards of safety, efficiency and sustainability.

“The team’s compliance should be viewed as the benchmark for all fleet operators and we look forward to continuing to work with them on their ongoing journey to maintaining excellence.”

Venson was examined by auditors from Logistics UK on its procedures for managing its in-house commercial fleet, including driver checks and vehicle record checks.

Samantha Roff, managing director of Venson Automotive Solutions, said: “It is great news to have retained the annual Van Excellence certification for another year.

“Even with Covid-19 restrictions in place, everyone from Venson who took part in undertaking the measures needed to keep the certification clearly demonstrated their knowledge and commitment to the scheme.

“Thanks to the efforts of our dedicated team, in what has been a very tough year, we continue to be recognised as an example of best practice.”
