Brokers are hot property
Congratulations to Marc McLoughlin and the KeyFleet team for the company’s acquisition by Greenarc. You might wonder what an energy company is doing buying out a leasing company – and it’s the subject of our lead story. But it’s not giving too much away to grasp how leasing brokers fit into the wider eco system of energy providers.
Congratulations also to Paul McManus who has joined AFL. I went along to see Patrick Fagan last week to catch up on the business and its plans and it seems Paul is already making a difference with his energy and friendly approach.
Finally our Women In Broking series continues, this time featuring West Country broker Carparison and general sales manager Charlotte Channing-Jones. It’s definitely worth a read.
