The scheme was launched in 2010 to promote high standards of van operation and driving by accrediting operators against a code of good practice. 

The addition of Industry Partners is intended to promote and endorse the Van Excellence Code amongst their customers and encourage its standards to be adopted and followed throughout the light commercial vehicle sector.


‘This is excellent news for Van Excellence who are delighted to welcome BT Fleet and TomTom Business Solutions as Industry Partners. The support of these two organisations to Van Excellence is invaluable and is testimony to the scheme which has become such an integral part organisations who operate van, and illustrates the important part they play in the day-to-day work within the logistics industry,’ said Mark Cartwright, FTA head of vans and light commercial vehicles.

In addition to supporting Van Excellence, the Industry Partners will be working with FTA on a number of different initiatives throughout 2013, including a Van Excellence supplement, developing best practice guides, and three new conferences throughout the UK.
