The boss of a North East vehicle services group formed through a merger two years ago has hailed its success, after posting rising revenues and profits.
North East vehicle hire business Redde Northgate said strong customer demand had driven up revenues 12% to top £1.24bn. The Darlington group, which has operations across the UK, Ireland and Spain, was created through the merger of light commercial vehicle hire business Northgate with support services company Redde, a move designed to create a market leading mobility solutions company.
As a whole, Redde Northgate services customers through a network and fleet of over 126,000 owned and leased vehicles, supporting over 600,000 managed vehicles, with around 175 branches across the UK, Ireland and Spain and a team of over 6,700 employees.
