Swansway Group was announced as the UK’s Fleet Dealer of the Year last night.

Sarah Eccles, the dealer group’s fleet director was given the trophy at the Fleet News Awards by AM associate editor and digital manager Jeremy Bennett, at a ceremony at London’s Grosvenor House Hotel.

It beat Holdcroft Group Fleet, Johnsons Fleet Services, Norton Way Motors, Snows Toyota and Vic Young (South Shields), with the Fleet News’ judges recognising Swansway as the dealer benchmark for customer service and a “determination to offer a holistic service to end-user fleets and contract hire companies saw it win significant new business in 2016”, including contracts with Canon, Cummings and GAP.

Fleet News is a sister title of AM.
