HGV Training For Your Business
Transcript
I’m Chris Davenport, Compliance and Risk Manager of Transport at Grafton Merchanting.
The business predominantly is builders merchants. We have a fleet of around about 700 vehicles, HGVs, vans, cars, etc.
Drivers, probably — with all businesses — we’re at about 1,000, just over. We have a shortage of drivers and so moving away from agencies is a lot easier to promote our own staff. So, we use EasyAsHGV simply to do that. We’re in a Warehouse to Wheels program.
What I feel that separates EasyAsHGV from other competitors is the fact that they are nationally based.
If we look to do this ourselves, we’d have to use several training companies to do this. Whereas we can hand it over to one supplier, and it can be completed right through to the end.
If someone else was considering using EasyAsHGV, I would highly recommend it. Certainly from administration process through to completion, they make life very easy. When candidates finish the course, we get really good feedback. If there’s any issues, they contact EasyAsHGV. Any issues are resolved quickly and efficiently. And they’re seen through the right to completion.
