SANYO UK Sales has signed a solus supply agreement with British Car Contracts to cover its 80 cars. BCC will provide all the Hertfordshire-based fleet's needs on a contract hire basis for the next three years, supplying a multi-franchise range on full service and maintenance over three years/90,000 miles. Vehicles that cover a very high mileage will be changed every two years.

The cars will go to senior managers through to sales executives in the user-chooser fleet with drivers being able to choose from about 10 cars. The old system used by Sanyo UK Sales was to ask a number of contract hire companies to tender for individual vehicles before choosing the most competitive quote.
