FLEET AWARDS GALA 2016

From the beginning of March until the last day of May, it was possible to vote for people, products and services in the fifth edition of the Fleet Derby poll. Over the ninety-two days of the plebiscite, more than 58,000 valid votes were cast.

The Fleet Derby, as befits a plebiscite, is based on competition. However, it is also an excellent opportunity to showcase your products and services. This year, managers, people involved in the fleet business as well as suppliers of particular solutions were able to cast their votes in four basic categories: Fleet Personality, Automotive Fleet Brand, Most Popular Fleet Car and Fleet Product and Service. In the last category, we distinguished twelve sub-categories, covering the basic aspects of the fleet market.

Voters had a tough nut to crack because, in order for their vote to be valid, they first had to log in and complete a short questionnaire. They could then cast their vote for the product of their choice or vote for all of them. The choice was not easy, as we had 33 personalities, 63 fleet products and services, 49 cars and 35 automotive brands entered.

Our partners encouraged people to vote for them in very interesting ways. There were newsletters, promotional campaigns on social media and even an invitation to vote in the mailing footer. We also ran promotional campaigns to encourage people to vote, but logically we did not promote specific products. We are very pleased that many of you took the time to vote. We would like to thank them as well as all those who took part in the poll and presented themselves, their products and services. We hope that even more companies will enter the poll next year, which I already strongly encourage you to do.

In the meantime, we present the list of winners and congratulate everyone.
