At a time when fleet managers throughout the United Kingdom are looking more than ever to find increased value in their vehicles, Stapleton’s tyre service has focused their business on providing both improved service and a broader range of tyres from which companies can choose.
Fleet managers are well accustomed to looking for bargains, it may involve looking for cheap van insurance or even discounted service charges, it will certainly involve looking for competitive tyre pricing. Stapleton’s has just won the Tyre Wholesaler of the Year award for the second year running and their leading position in the UK tyre industry has been put down to their “working for the customer” philosophy. They are aware how tough it is for retail customers and they are working hard to meet the needs of the customer quickly and accurately. Stapleton’s can provide a tyre from stock for every commercial van on the road and have a huge portfolio of exclusive mid-range and budget brands that can be sent out faster than ever with deliveries ranging from hourly, three times a day and next day depending on the location of the customer.
Fast delivery is vital to commercial van operators who cannot afford to have vans off the road while they wait for tyres. Stapleton’s stock around 1.2 million tyres, held at twenty-two warehouses and twenty distribution points throughout the United Kingdom. Last year the company added the Maxxis range to its stock which offers the combination of safety, durability and performance that hard pressed commercial van operator’s demand. Stapleton’s has tyres for drivers carrying heavier loads as well as tyres that are designed for driving in the urban environment.
Stapleton’s Managing Director, Yutaka Kimbara, said “The expansion of our van tyre range is a key part of the customer focused ethos that has helped us overcome the less than favourable market conditions of last year. As a round the clock, time pressured operation running a fleet of 275 vans throughout the UK we at Stapleton’s are all too familiar with the challenges tyre retailers face and I’m sure our customers will value this extra choice and value.”
