The 129th State of the Fleet Trade video produced by Automotive Fleet presents insights into the state of the fleet market as introduced by AF Editor Mike Antich.
🎙At the moment’s subjects embrace:
- There must be a re-establishment of belief between producers, upfitters, sellers, and fleet end-users.
- Fleet managers imagine that the difficulties skilled with sourcing constraints throughout the previous three years have eroded the belief that has existed between patrons and sellers within the fleet business.
- Some imagine that sellers are profiting from right this moment’s sourcing constraints by not honoring prior pricing commitments, which, in flip, is damaging long-standing enterprise relationships.
- There must be a collective answer to make sure that buyer-seller relationships will stay robust and develop even stronger sooner or later. Trade leaders are inspired to take the collective lead in making this aspiration a actuality.
