Property maintenance firm MSL Property Care Services has enhanced its commercial vehicle fleet with eight new Nissan Primastar vans through mobility specialist Ogilvie Fleet.

This acquisition is expected to be the Halifax-based company’s final diesel van order as it prepares to transition its van fleet to electric in the near future.

MSL, which provides facilities management services across multiple industries including clients such as Pets at Home, New Look, British Heart Foundation and William Hill, relies on a bespoke fleet of commercial vehicles to deliver its nationwide maintenance services. The company currently operates 22 vehicles in total – eight vans and 14 company cars – all supplied by Ogilvie Fleet.

Jeremy Harrison, managing director at MSL Property Care Services, said: “We’re proud to be owners of a new fleet of Nissan Primastar vans that will keep our team on the move with reliable and efficient transport to support our nationwide services.

“Ogilvie have been instrumental in us choosing Nissan, as it fits the needs of our business as well as making commercial sense with the discounts we achieved via Adrian and the Ogilvie team.

“The Primastar is a brilliant van, and we are looking forward to exploring Nissan’s all-electric vehicles as we look at ways we can make our operations even greener and more sustainable.”

The partnership between MSL and Ogilvie Fleet extends beyond vehicle supply, with Ogilvie providing comprehensive fleet management services including vehicle fit-out and livery application.

Adrian Horton, corporate sales manager at Ogilvie Fleet and manager for the MSL account, said: “It was a pleasure to support Jeremy and the MSL team in their vehicle upgrade.

“They are a great local business and we took note of not only the business’s needs, but those of the drivers, to help us build a fleet that works for all. We also supported on the fit-out and livery of the vans – their branding looks great and will certainly help them stand out on the roads!”
