Based in Chester, the business is effectively
a continuation of HBOS’ high-end transport leasing business,
typically targeting customers turning over more than £5 million
(€5.4 million) and with a fleet of more than 50 vehicles.

“Nine months ago, we had two options: either
to lift and drop the HBOS transport business into another bank, or
to replicate it as a broker/consultant and do it ourselves,” said
Phil Snewin, a T&L director and formerly head of the transport
and logistics team at HBOS.

“People like to deal with people. The
proposition to our customers is we can carry on looking after their
needs – and HBOS does not mind us doing this.”

According to Snewin, they used to write around
£200 million per annum at HBOS. Now, T&L’s objective is to
write around half of that amount.

“We are not trying to reinvent the wheel,”
said Snewin. “We are just trying to deal with people we have been
looking after for the last 10 years.”
