Citroën’s Ready To Run range has won the VansA2Z One-Stop Shop Award for the second consecutive year.

Citroën’s ‘Ready to Run’ specialist vehicle programme has won the VansA2Z ‘One-Stop Shop’ award for the second consecutive year.

Ready to Run enables Citroën customers to buy readybuilt conversions, directly from Citroën dealers.

The firm’s programme is the most comprehensive in the UK market, and enables businesses to purchase conversions for Nemo, Berlingo, Dispatch and Relay vans, including:

• Dropside trucks (Relay)
• Luton vans (Relay)
• Temperature-controlled (chiller/freezer) vans (Nemo, Berlingo, Dispatch & Relay)
• Tippers (Relay)
• Glass carrying vans (Berlingo, Dispatch & Relay)
• High-cube, low-loading vans (Relay)
• Minibuses (Relay)

Jeremy Smith, Citroën’s Head of Commercial Vehicles & Business Sector Operations, says that the Ready to Run programme:

“continues to attract new Citroën LCV customers, particularly in the Small, Medium Enterprise (SME) sector.”

This makes sense — while larger companies might prefer to arrange for bulk orders to their specifications from commercial bodybuilders, for smaller companies, the cost and time of doing this isn’t so attractive, and they won’t be able to benefit from volume discounts, either.
