BRISTOL-based van broker specialist Global Vans is expanding its Bristol headquarters as it looks to further grow the business.
Having recently acquired the lcv group and a year earlier XLCR Leasing, Global Vans continues to invest in the broker sector with the doubling of its current office space while at the same time revitalising the existing office conditions.
“This expansion will allow us room to scale operations and enhance the working environment for our team with improved facilities,” commented Andrew Hurst, Managing Director of Global Vans.
Hurst said the new offices had been designed with productivity, flexibility, collaborative working and employee well-being in mind. “This is a significant investment in our people and culture – helping us to continue to deliver exceptional service to our customers,” continued Hurst.
“Our people make us great, and it’s through continued investment in our teams across the Global Vehicle Group – based in Bristol, Hemel Hempstead, Cardiff, Swansea, Plymouth and Colne, that we will achieve further success in the coming years.”
In March 2022, Global Vans secured funding from H2 Equity Partners, an independent investment firm making investments in medium-sized companies with significant growth or improvement potential.
