2 Sisters Food Group
Driving down costs, year on year.
Case Study
2 Sisters Food Group has grown to become one of the leading food manufacturing companies in Europe, with more than 20,000 colleagues drawn from multiple nationalities.
By driving down its overheads, 2 Sisters Food Group can offer better value to its customers. When Interactive Fleet Management was first appointed, a key remit was to bring down the fleet’s operating costs year on year whilst meeting HR policy objectives.
A genuine ‘quick win’
With a fleet of around 300 vehicles, the starting point was to identify where the majority of savings could be made. Our first recommendation was to move the fleet to a multi-bid contract hire approach, managed by our specialist fleet management team. With multi-bid contract hire, we source the most competitive rate on the day from an approved panel of funders for every order placed. With rentals varying between suppliers by as much as £30 per month on some vehicles, this delivers immediate savings – a genuine ‘quick win’ for companies looking to drive down their lease costs.
We also recommended moving away from full maintenance contract hire to pay as you go maintenance, with our technical teams authorising all expenditure, managing costs and offering further savings. Because we handle the entire process – including all day-to day driver contact – this approach has all of the financial benefits of multi-supply yet the operational ease of a single point of contact. By placing strict controls across vehicle choice lists, accident management, uninsured loss recovery, spot hire and fuel expenditure, we were able to make savings year on year.
They have an in-depth understanding of our business and the requirements of our company car policy, and they manage every item of expenditure as if it was their own.

“We also looked at other areas where cost savings could be achieved – vehicle choice lists, accident management including uninsured loss recovery, spot hire rental vehicles, and fuel expenditure. By placing strict controls across these areas, we were able to make savings year on year.”
We are proud to help 2 Sisters Food Group drive down fleet operating costs year on year.
