LeasePlan has announced it has partnered with Van Excellence to continue its commitment to high standards of van operation.

Under the scheme, LeasePlan will promote the Van Excellence Code amongst its customers and encourage its standards to be adopted and followed throughout the light commercial vehicle sector.

The Freight Transport Association (FTA) scheme was launched in 2010 to promote high standards of van operation and driving by accrediting operators against an industry code of good practice.

Mark Lovett, LeasePlan’s head of commercial vehicles said, “We are delighted to realise this opportunity to partner with Van Excellence. Their own high standards mirror our commitment to providing the best possible quality for our customers. Acceptance as a partner represents recognition of the ongoing hard work that has been put in by the LCV team.”
