UK Company Outsources Fleet of 100 Vehicles to Ryder

Ryder System has announced that it has been selected as the outsourced fleet provider for Howdens Joinery, one of the U.K.’s leading manufacturers and suppliers of kitchens and joinery products.

Howdens is replacing its existing fleet with 100 heavy duty, Euro 6 compliant tractors, under a full service lease from Ryder. Euro 6 is the latest diesel engine emission legislation being driven by the European Commission.

The new vehicles feature high-tech specifications including lane departure systems, adaptive cruise control, forward facing cameras, and on-board telematics.

As for location, the vehicles will operate across Howdens Yorkshire and Northampton distribution hubs and its four regional transportation hubs, delivering to nearly 600 trade depots.
