UK fuel card company Silvey Fleet launches in France

Silvey Fleet, the UK-based provider of fuel cards and fleet management solutions within the MB Energy Group, is expanding into France. Pierre-Marie Brancour, Country Manager for France, will lead operations from the new regional headquarters in Lille, whilst Mathieu Cuny joins as Sales Manager for the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes and Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur regions. Further recruitment is planned to cover the rest of the region.

The new fuel cards, offered in partnership with French multi-brand fuel card networks, give Silvey Fleet’s customers access to competitive fuel prices for multi-fuel fleets at more than 2,900 service stations across France, including over 1,500 lorry service stations.

Using the free smartphone app, drivers can easily find the nearest service station. The fuel cards can also be used to purchase other products such as lubricants, AdBlue and vehicle wash services. All purchases can be tracked and managed via an online portal. For added security, the cards feature a magnetic stripe and PIN system.

A service that has made a name for itself

As one of the UK’s most established resellers of fuel cards and fleet management solutions, Silvey Fleet attributes much of its success to its investment in long-term customer relationships. The company consistently adds value and places its customers at the heart of everything it does – an approach that has earned Silvey Fleet two prestigious awards: ‘Investor in Customers Gold’ accreditation and ‘Investors in People Platinum’ accreditation.

In addition to fuel cards, Silvey Fleet’s fleet management solutions provide a comprehensive, centralised overview of a fleet’s expenditure and operational processes, enabling fleet managers to gain valuable insights and improve efficiency. Furthermore, the Silvey Fleet team works closely with customers to ensure they can reduce their operating costs – a support service that is highly valued given the current economic uncertainties.

Having entered the Irish market in 2022 and now launched in France, Silvey Fleet is expanding to serve customers outside the UK. As part of MB Energy’s Commercial Road Transport division, Silvey Fleet’s services perfectly complement the extensive network of automated refuelling stations for commercial vehicle fleets, which MB Energy operates across Europe and which is linked to the strong tankpool24 network, in addition to the full-service lorry service stations operated by the group in the United Kingdom.

Creating added value, reducing costs

Pierre-Marie Brancour, Country Manager for France at Silvey Fleet, emphasises: “With our extensive experience in fuel cards and our proven fleet management solutions, we aim to help our customers operate their vehicle fleets more efficiently. Our fuel cards offer customers convenient access to competitive fuel prices, whilst our fleet management solutions provide a comprehensive overview of fleet operations, thereby further increasing efficiency.”

Energy for the future

Miriam James, Managing Director of Silvey Fleet, said: “I am delighted that we are expanding our business into France and can offer our tried-and-tested fleet management solutions to a new audience. We have worked hard to get to where we are today. I am very grateful to the team for their dedication and commitment. These are exciting times for the company and the whole team.”
