VERTU Fleet completes a hat-trick of Commendation Partners for the inaugural BN25 event.
The Fleet division of the fourth largest motor retailer in the UK is supporting the ‘One to Watch’ category in the BN25 event, which takes place on Thursday 05 February 2025 at Bentley’s Oyster Bar & Grill in London’s Mayfair.
Supported by all the major leasing brokers, the BN25 will provide a fascinating insight into the influence leasing brokers have on the UK automotive sales sector. It will also highlight the work B2B brokers perform in fleet, salary sacrifice and business sales
“Vertu Fleet has strong partnerships across the broker sector, and the BN25 provides an ideal platform to reinforce our continued commitment.”
Marco Capozzoli, Fleet Director, Vertu Fleet Tweet
Leasing brokers should submit 2025 new vehicle sales volumes by funder via this link – BN25 2026 entry form – in order to be part of the BN25. Sales figures will be independently verified. We will also request your total 2024 figure as well but no additional material is required.
“Welcoming new supporters to our Broker News events is always a pleasure and I’m delighted that Vertu Fleet has chosen to be involved in the BN25. The broker league table is a brilliant way to demonstrate the influence of the broker sector on the motor industry.”
Ralph Morton, Editor, Broker News Tweet
