AkzoNobel's fleet management partner Arval U.K. helped the company expand its EV and plug-in hybrid selection for drivers and test the suitability of electric vans for its decorator centers' deliveries..
Corrine Barton has been named director of global operations, and Joel Lund has been appointed commercial director.
The acquisition, which includes a contract hire fleet of 1,300 specialist vehicles, is the first since Hitachi rebranded to Novuna in the U.K. in February this year.
In her first year as Arval's first female managing director, the company highlighted many of her accomplishments on March 8, International Women's Day.
Arval is restricting access to replacement petrol and diesel cars and nudging drivers towards zero-emission vehicles while also offering more vehicle brands than ever before.
Arval reports that its fleet orders in the UK grew by 15% in what it says was a flat market during the pandemic-affected 2021. The leasing and mobility company posted a similar uplift in vehicle orders (15%) on a global basis as it grew its fleet to1,469,753 leased vehicles.
Arval’s Swiss subsidiary will purchase the entire full service leasing fleet of Athlon Switzerland AG.
