Northgate plc is the leading light commercial vehicle rental business in both the UK and Spain by fleet size and has been operating in the sector since 1981. Our core business is the rental of vehicles to other businesses on flexible length contracts, which gives customers the flexibility to manage their vehicle fleet without a long-term commitment.

The business in the UK and Ireland comprises 21 hire companies operating from 80 sites with a fleet of 62,900 vehicles. In addition, we sell former rental vehicles to both retail and trade customers. We also offer an increasing range of services and products to help customers manage their fleets effectively e.g. vehicle monitoring and parts procurement. For those customers who want to outsource part or all of their existing fleet whilst retaining ownership, our Fleet Technique business can assist them.

In Spain, we operate through two separate brands * Fualsa and Record. With 32 branches and a combined fleet of over 60,400 vehicles we are the market leaders in light commercial vehicle rental in Spain. Vehicle sales is again an important part of the business.

We primarily serve business customers with our customers operating in a wide range of industries of which construction and distribution are the two largest. Other major sectors include local authorities, public utilities and retailers.

We employ 2,527 people across the Group.
