Furniture Village signs fuel deal with Arval
Leading fleet and fuel management company, Arval has signed a deal with Furniture Village which will see the company’s drivers allocated Arval fuel cards.
The deal sees Furniture Village sign up to a combination of Arval’s standard fuel card, offering access to over 95 per cent of UK filling stations, and their Diesel Direct card which provides access to the largest, independent commercial diesel network in the UK and the opportunity to purchase fuel below the retail price.
Furniture Village is Britain’s leading independent furniture retailer with 36 stores nationwide and a turnover of £220m. They provide an extensive range of classic and contemporary furniture across living, dining and bedrooms.
With a fleet of 130 vehicles, largely used to deliver products to customers, the deal is expected to support the retailer in reducing their total fuel bill alongside the convenience that the extensive fuel network provides to drivers and ongoing support from Arval’s account management team.
Steve Morrison, Supply Chain Controller for Furniture Village comments:“We selected Arval as our fuel card supplier because of the opportunity to reduce costs and their extensive fuel network. Our fleet of commercial vehicles is crucial in delivering products to customers on time and so our drivers need to have access to fuel at convenient locations around the clock.”
Jenny Powley, Sales Director – Fuel and Fleet Card at Arval adds: “With fuel representing the second highest cost in fleet management, our fuel cards provide an essential tool in managing both fuel volumes and spend. We look forward to working with Furniture Village and providing the support and advice that they need to achieve their overall fleet objectives.”
With over 35 years industry experience and more than 1.2 million UK drivers using Arval fuel cards the company processes over 63 million fuel transactions each year.
