Is there a fleet leader whose legacy continues to resonate across the industry? Here’s the chance to recognize them.

Deadline to submit your nomination has been extended until July 2. Apply now!

The Hall of Fame awards are prestigious and highly regarded by industry professionals in the corporate and commercial fleet world. The awards are presented by Automotive Fleet and sponsored exclusively by the Automotive Fleet & Leasing Association (AFLA).

Initially launched in 2008, the Hall of Fame acts as a way to recognize and celebrate professionals who have dedicated over a decade to the industry.

“I promise I will continue to provide the same level of support offered to me to anyone who asks, “said Oleg Cytowicz in his acceptance speech last year. “This honor isn’t just a reflection of my journey — it’s a celebration of everyone who helped me along the way. Thank you for making this ride so far unforgettable.”

In addition to online balloting, nominees will now be assessed annually by a judging committee. Nominations now close on July 2.
