BVRLA membership rises steadily
BVRLA has revealed that membership increased last year to 1,007 organisations.
It has reported that more rental, leasing and fleet management, commercial vehicle and associate members joining the BVRLA association, although leasing broker numbers reduced slightly, largely due to consolidation in the sector.
The total BVRLA fleet size grew two per cent year-on-year.
BVRLA dhief executive Gerry Keaney said: “We are delighted to have seen another year of growth at the BVRLA, in what has been a difficult year for the wider automotive industry. As well as seeing continuing growth in personal leasing, we have also seen an increasing trend in the number of commercial vehicle operators looking to the rental and leasing sectors for more cost-effective, cleaner transport solutions.
“Although we expect 2020 to continue to bring its challenges, our industry will remain resilient; embracing opportunities, adapting business models and changing the make-up of their fleets to meet their customers’ needs.”
