All units and trailers will be fitted with Bridgestone tyres.
The franchised network of Bandag dealers forms the cornerstone of Bridgestone’s retread proposition. Each truck tyre features retreading technology built-into the original tyre design.
The FleetBridge reporting system offers transparency on the condition of vehicle tyres. The solution automates workflows between VKVP, Bridgestone Partner dealers and Bridgestone’s own fleet administration to help save time in the tyre management process.
The Bridgestone Partner dealer network was also cited as a reason for VKVP’s decision to work with the tyre giant.
Bridgestone’s National Fleet Executive Neil Collison said: “We were able to demonstrate that our premium tyre range and line of Bandag retread products offer great longevity, while our breakdown response times via the Bridgestone Partner network were seen as another compelling factor.
“We proved that we can be on hand to support them 24 hours a day, seven days a week and can be an extension of their business which will be there for them at all times.”
