Burnt Tree Vehicle Rental has secured an order to supply over 100 vehicles to FPS distribution. Stuart Collett, Fleet Manager for FPS one of the
UK’s most successful and established automotive aftermarket parts distribution companies, said: "Vehicles are an essential part of our business and choosing the right supplier is just as important." Mr. Collett continued: "The service received to date, in particular from Joanna Pilgrim our Burnt Tree Account Manager, has been excellent and we hope that this will continue long into the relationship between our two companies."
FPS delivers to over 2,500 motor factor customers across the UK through a network of 20 sites, each carrying over 35,000 parts and offering 2–6 daily deliveries, providing a unique supply chain solution for their customers.
Joanna commented: "FPS knew that the Citroen Berlingo was ideally suited to their business, and as Burnt Tree are not tied to using one manufacturer we were able to source the exact model the customer requested. We even supplied the vehicles in FPS colour scheme and livery. Phil Simpson of sign and livery specialist
BCS Group said: "We have a long-established relationship with Burnt Tree and understand their needs and what their customers want. The 127 vehicles took just over a week and - even though along with the rest of
Britain we battled arctic conditions - we met the deadline and the vehicles look great when they were finished."
Joanna added: “We have a strong and well established team here at Oldbury and I am confident with our excellent customer service we can be an asset to any business locally or nationally. Burnt Tree Vehicle Rental has 18 branches in the
UK, including Oldbury, where it has been established for 15 years.
