Branston are Now on Course to Save £60,000 a Year in Fuel

Branston who are a potato business, have said that they are going to be making a huge number of fuel savings. They have a 33-strong fleet and they have also gone through an in-depth driver program as well. This is going to be done through Volvo Connect. The company have been able to boost the average driver score by over 10 points, and they are also going to see a huge boost in fuel efficiency too. This is going to be the case for every mile per gallon. The initiative was originally instigated by Luke Braddow who is an industry group transport manager. He has been working with Stace Whitehead for quite some time and they have come up with a full training plan to make sure that they cover the firm’s drivers across the three depots.

Everyone knew that by trying to improve driver behaviour, that this could have a huge impact on business. It will also go a long way when it comes to improving safety and this is especially the case when you look at the vehicles and the general efficiency of them. Of course, the data that has been gathered thus far has proved everyone right. If you work in driver recruitment, as part of a driving agency or if you are seeking driver jobs the this will really make a difference to you. Of course, those who work warehouse jobs and those who are industrial workers will benefit as well. The fleet of tractor units can easily average around 180,000km a year and when you pair this with the refrigerated trailers, you will see that the trucks can then easily collect potatoes from up and down the UK with ease and efficiency with a remarkable focus on innovation.
