support large international customers in Finland.
Peter Soliman, CEO of Fleet
Logistics, said there are considerable growth opportunities within
the four main countries of the Nordic region.
Fleet Logistics plans to
double its 5,000-strong Nordic fleet within the next three

that a new management team, led with energy and determination by
Stuart, will have the capability to achieve and deliver on our
expansion plans for the region and for the business as a whole, and
we wish him all possible success.”
The fleet market in the
Nordic region is less mature than in the UK, France and Germany,
and therefore provides good potential for growth, said a spokesman
for Fleet Logistics.
Corporate car fleets in the
Nordics are mostly subsidiaries of large Western companies, the
spokesman added.
Fleet Logistics currently manages a vehicle fleet of
around 80,000 vehicles and the group has operations in a range of
countries including Germany, France and the UK.
