Prometeon Tyre Group announce contract renewal with Collease Truck and Trailer Hire : Outstanding customer service and premium products result in 12-month contract extension with leading trailer lease business
Collease Truck and Trailer Hire has renewed its contract with premium tyre manufacturer Prometeon Tyre Group for a further 12 months for the supply of tyres to the entire fleet of 2,000 trailers, 300 tractor units and 350 motorised vehicles that range from 7.5-tonne vans to 26-tonne refrigerated trucks.
The family-owned hire company leases trucks and trailers from five sites around the UK: Manchester, Felixstowe, Southampton, Norwich and Basildon. Its customers range from large fleets to smaller scale businesses that deliver products including perishable goods such as lettuce and potatoes, chilled goods and large industrial equipment.
Tony Willats, Tyre Manager for Collease, commented: “We were extremely happy to extend the contract with Prometeon as the service we receive is outstanding, with 100% commitment from the Prometeon team. Alongside the supply of premium tyres they consistently provide Collease with the best value products and services on the market.”
“We compared like for like but Prometeon’s attention to detail, expertise and quick response times could not be matched,” he added.
Prometeon’s business mission is to add value to all areas of a customer’s business, as Wayne Bell, Prometeon’s National Fleet Manager, explained: “We strive to always give an extra level of service by working closely with our customers to fully understand their business so we can supply the best tyres to suit their fleet, adding real value efficiencies and cost benefits.”
Quick response times for tyre callouts have been the key to Prometeon’s successful management of the Collease contract, according to Willats: “We have customers with perishable goods so it’s vital drivers are not left waiting on the roadside and Prometeon’s expertise and advice has been invaluable when negotiating tyre damage recharges to our customers, saving the business time and money.”
Collease’s rental fleet customers drive around 160,000km per annum and Prometeon supply 2,500 tyres per annum
Prometeon’s Bell concluded: “We are proud to offer Collease a premium product, alongside Prometeon’s dedicated tyre dealer network to deliver our promise to keep their customers on the road. By providing a proactive tyre management service that is flexible and intuitive we can continue to support Collease to grow its business and meet all its operational needs.”
