THIS year we give a warm welcome to Vertu Group Fleet for backing the Best Volume Broker category at the 2026 Broker News Awards, this Thursday 23 April.
As the fleet division of the fourth largest motor retailer in the UK Vertu Group Fleet certainly knows all about volume – it’s one of the largest suppliers of fleet vehicles in the UK, providing cost-effective, efficient and compliant solutions for businesses of all sizes.
And it’s the second time Vertu has supported us recognising the best in broking. Earlier this year it was a Commendation Partner for the inaugural BN25 event, supporting the ‘One to Watch’ category, won by Car Leasing as a leasing broker on the growth fast track.
“We have established robust partnerships within the broker sector, recognising the significance of this channel. Supporting this award allows us to further acknowledge our collaborative efforts with key organisations in the leasing broker industry.”
The tables will soon be set at our exciting new venue London’s Coq d’Argent restaurant, and the fourth annual Broker News Awards 2026 promises to deliver an excellent event for networking, celebrating the best in the leasing broker sector over fantastic food and drink.

Russell Hayes’ early career was 14 years of motoring journalism in print (for What Car?), television (for Top Gear), as well as online. Since 2007 he has authored 12 motoring history books on subjects including TVR, the Earls Court Motor Show, the Volkswagen Golf and Aston Martin – see Russell Hayes on Amazon. However, he’s not forgotten how to be a motoring journalist and now writes for UK consumer motoring sites – not to mention Broker News. When he’s not writing, Russell can be found in the cinema or planning his next travel adventure.
