The awards returned to luxury hotel, Winstanley House in Leicester following an enjoyable ceremony at the venue last year.
The focus of the 2019 awards was ‘Alltruck at its best,’ showcasing the talent, teamwork and commitment of our people and those that we work with. Our drinks reception was kindly sponsored by Lombard.
Alltruck has enjoyed another great year, with the successful implementation of stage 1 of Odyssey, growth of the contract hire fleet by 150 vehicles, record vehicle sales from Alltruck2 and contract hire renewal rates being at their highest levels for years, amongst many other achievements.
On the awards night we were also joined by guest speaker Mark Fritz, an internationally recognised speaker who gives talks across the globe on leadership and the power of ownership.
This year’s nominees were Ford & Slater, Adam Harris, Santander and Freeman Clarke. This award celebrates and recognises the valuable partnerships we have with businesses that in turn help Alltruck.
