Zenith Trailer Rentals has reported continued growth across its operation supported by a major fleet investment, while also strengthening its leadership team as the business reinforces its leading position in the UK trailer rental market.
The business operates one of the UK’s largest and most diverse trailer rental fleets, comprising of more than 6,400 trailers, a 5.8% year-on-year fleet growth. Serving more than 200 fleet operators nationwide, Zenith offers both short and long-term rental solutions across approximately 70 trailer configurations, helping customers manage seasonal peaks in demand, while maintaining operational flexibility.
Strong fleet performance was reflected in an average trailer utilisation and to further support customer demand, Zenith has placed an order for 600 new trailers, representing a multi-million-pound investment that will further strengthen fleet availability and customer choice.
Zenith has also appointed Chris Hanley, who joins as the company’s Sales Director – Key Accounts. Chris has 25 years’ experience in the commercial vehicle leasing and rental sector, and joins Zenith from Scania, where he led the company’s Global Rental Division, developing rental solutions and strategy across multiple international markets. Prior to that, he was Head of Rental at Ryder UK, leading the business through a significant period of growth before its exit from the market.
"Zenith Trailer Rentals has built an excellent reputation for delivering flexible, customer-focused solutions backed by a high-quality fleet and industry-leading expertise. I'm delighted to be joining the business at such an exciting time. With continued investment in the fleet and strong demand from customers, there is a real opportunity to build on the momentum already achieved and support even more operators across the UK."
