BEST known as a leading supplier of vans to UK trades, commercial vehicle leasing provider Vanarama looks set to become a major contender in the cars market too.
The company is launching Vanarama Cars to take advantage of the booming personal and business leasing sector.
New car drivers are increasingly choosing to lease their car in much the same way as they do their mobile phone, making sure they have the most up-to-date and reliable technology available.
Vanarama Cars will use the huge buying power it already has with the major manufacturers to source cars from all the top marques, selling via its website.
Andy Alderson, Vanarama’s managing director, said: ‘With almost 76 per cent of private new car sales paid for on some form of finance, it’s clear that the appetite for leasing shows no sign of abating.
‘We will capitalise on our extensive knowledge of the motor trade and existing industry-leading customer service and sales channels, to extend our offer to cars for new and existing customers across the UK.
‘By extending our offer to supply cars we are increasing our market potential enormously.’
