Yoogo Fleet was created specifically for NZ businesses – because the global leasing industry wasn’t delivering! Continuing to apply the same world-wide fleet practices & vehicle management strategies in a market that had changed dramatically since the early 2000’s, the innovation or tailored solutions that Kiwi businesses demanded weren’t on offer here.
Established industry leaders, both Kelvin James and David Jenkinson decided the local market needed a different approach. With the backing of NZ private equity specialists Maui Capital, together they established Yoogo Fleet in 2013.
The Yoogo Fleet team saw a real opportunity to innovate the market and create a transparent, data- led, smart range of connected Financial, Fleet Management and Leasing products, specifically tailored for New Zealand business fleets.
Right at the core of Yoogo Fleet’s offering is an integrated telemetry-based asset management system, giving the Yoogo Fleet team complete visibility over their customers’ fleet assets & their changing needs. Live vehicle usage data is available 24/7 via a suite of smart reporting algorithms within the Telematics system, allowing both real-time operational intervention with vehicle servicing and RUC management requirements, plus longer-term trend analysis to provide improved asset & contract management controls.
Coupled with a pro-active ‘direct to driver’ maintenance notification & booking process, Yoogo Fleet’s customers can rest assured that both their drivers and their fleets are safe, compliant, roadworthy and fully optimised.
Creating tailored fleet solutions, connected service offers & a qualitative customer focus has seen Yoogo Fleet secure many significant NZ owned & operated customers over the past 18 months. In addition, within their broader Group of businesses, including Speirs Finance Group & AB Equipment, Yoogo Fleet also have the capability of providing expertise & financial solutions across Heavy Commercial, Material Handling & specialised Commercial Equipment requirements.
Yoogo Fleet is an innovative business which will continue to develop & explore new technologies & products to stay ahead of the market for NZ customers. With alternative mobility models & smarter vehicle management looking to accelerate in the near future, Yoogo Fleet are perfectly placed to innovate & provide for these emerging opportunities!
