One of Yorkshire’s leading property maintenance businesses, MSL Property Care Services, is working with mobility specialists Ogilvie Fleet to streamline its vehicle fleet and keep expert teams on the road.
Ogilvie Fleet has worked with the Halifax-based business to recently deliver a batch of eight brand new Nissan Primastar vans.
A bespoke fleet of commercial vehicles is key to its operation, and having reliable vehicles supports its ability to provide crucial services to customers nationwide. This is expected to be MSL’s final diesel van order, as the company prepares to transition its van fleet to electric in the near future.
MSL currently operates a fleet of 22 vehicles – eight vans and 14 company cars – all supplied by Ogilvie Fleet. The car fleet is already 100% plug-in, with a mix of battery electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles.
Ogilvie has supported MSL for nearly 20 years, guiding the business through the entire fleet lifecycle, including the disposal of old vehicles and the specification of new ones based on detailed analysis of business and driver needs.
As well as managing the van fleet, Ogilvie also supplies vehicles to MSL’s directors, senior management and support staff – including a growing number of fully electric cars. They also supported the business in the fit-out and livery of the new vans.
Jeremy Harrison, Managing Director at MSL Property Care Services, said: “We’re proud to be owners of a new fleet of Nissan Primastar vans that will keep our team on the move with reliable and efficient transport to support our nationwide services.
“Ogilvie have been instrumental in us choosing Nissan, as it fits the needs of our business as well as making commercial sense with the discounts we achieved via Adrian and the Ogilvie team. The Primastar is a brilliant van, and we are looking forward to exploring Nissan’s all-electric vehicles as we look at ways we can make our operations even greener and more sustainable.”
Adrian Horton, Corporate Sales Manager at Ogilvie Fleet and manager for the MSL account, commented: “It was a pleasure to support Jeremy and the MSL team in their vehicle upgrade.
“They are a great local business and we took note of not only the business’s needs, but those of the drivers, to help us build a fleet that works for all. We also supported on the fit-out and livery of the vans – their branding looks great and will certainly help them stand out on the roads!”
