Volkswagen have been awarded with a 450-van fleet deal with Well Pharmacy.

Well Pharmacy have agreed to a three-year deal with Volkswagen that will see them take ownership of 450 new VW commercial vehicles, a majority of which will be the immensely popular Caddy with Volkswagen Transporters making up the rest of the order.

The high street Pharmacy chain currently has 780 pharmacies across the UK and dispenses more than 74 million prescriptions each year and is well known by local communities for offering healthcare advice and wellbeing support.

Brian James, fleet and home delivery manager at Well Pharmacy has commented on the new deal saying, "Keeping our national prescription delivery team on the road is vital, as our customers’ health depends on the swift delivery of their medicine."

"When selecting our fleet partner, we took into consideration those areas that most affected our business, including vehicle quality, after-care service and whole-life costs. Volkswagen’s combination of a nationwide network of dedicated Van Centres and comprehensive aftersales support reassured us that we could reduce our vehicle downtime and ensure that our drivers spend more time delivering a valuable service to our customers."
