SUZUKI Financial Services has launched a new contract hire operation in partnership with its long established finance provider Black Horse.

 

There are currently 66,000 contract hire customers in theUKoperating 1.5 million vehicles and with a growing appetite for rental products in the marketplace a dealer-based contract hire product provides an opportunity to reach new business customers, says Suzuki, particularly when around 20% are companies operating 40 or fewer vehicles.

 

Suzuki Contract Hire will, says the organisation, provide definite growth opportunities with potential customers in local communities such as estate agents, solicitors and accountants being targeted.

 

Suzuki Financial Services general manager Gary Dixon said: ‘Black Horse created a new personal contract hire product specifically for private individuals and, with our partners at Lex Autolease, a contract hire product for business users, including fleet operators.

 

‘Both products offer customers – individuals or business customers – the opportunity of a fixed cost, flexible term, low-risk rental agreement, which can be easily arranged with dealers.’
