This is the second accolade for the company this year, having taken first prize in the Fleet Excellence Awards – voted for by the fleet professionals who read Fleet Week and Fleet Management – for an unprecedented 13th year in succession.

This brings the number of awards for Kwik-Fit Fleet to 52 in its 19-year history, but the company is not resting on its laurels, having last year embarked on a multi-million Pound investment programme to update its centres and to further improve staff training and development.

This programme has continued under new owners PAI Partners, alongside a makeover of the 220-strong mobile fleet and new livery. Kwik-Fit Fleet sales director in the UK Nigel Davies said: "Kwik-Fit Fleet continues to go from strength to strength. We have continued to secure a clutch of new contracts with many of Britain’s top contract hire and leasing companies, which means we are servicing more cars and vans than ever before."
