Part of Lookers Plc, the Mallusk-based company was named 2022 UK Leasing Operator of the Year by industry experts.
This award comes after the successful roll-out of the business' innovative 'eMotive' and 'Your Preference' product offerings.
With electric and hybrid vehicles accounting for over 65% of the Fleet Financial's vehicle orders, the company launched its eMotive product in 2020 to support SME's and corporate customers successfully transition to electric and hybrid vehicles.
eMotive helps businesses navigate some of the key considerations of making the switch to electric or hybrid, including financial incentives, mileage, charging, vehicle choice and costs.
The launch of a dedicated 'Your Preference' personal leasing website in September 2021 has helped the business' personal leasing division grow by over 70% with the site accounting for over 25% of its personal contract hire orders.

'Your Preference' allows non-business customers to use Personal Contact Hire to acquire a new car by selecting their make, model, mileage, and monthly budget.
Fleet Financial employs 25 full-time staff at its Belfast headquarters and manages almost 4,000 vehicles for 1,300 clients across Great Britain, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.
