TOYOTA has a won its biggest yet dual-badge contract to supply up to 2,000 cars to the Granada Group. The win wrestles a large chunk of the Granada business from Vauxhall, which previously supplied cars for the 4,000-vehicle fleet on a solus basis. It is the latest in a string of deals Toyota has signed with blue chip companies, including Kwik Save, British Telecom, Nortel and Commercial Union.

Models from across the line-up - including Lexus - will feature in the deal, which will cover high profile companies like Forte Hotels, Granada Entertainments and Little Chef. The contract runs for three years with all vehicles leased through PHH Vehicle Management Services or Vauxhall Master Hire Leasing.
