Business growth leads to bigger premises for our Gatwick franchisee

The award winning recruitment team at Driver Hire Gatwick is on the move.

Their ongoing success story – turnover at the business is 77% up on time last year, another all time record – means that a move to larger premises was an essential.

“Over the past four years we’ve more than quadrupled our turnover; I now employ three members of staff and we regularly find work for around 100 drivers every week of the year,” says Nic Chaviaris, the franchisee of the business. In 2015, Nic was Driver Hire’s ‘Franchisee of the Year’ and a bfa ‘Franchisee of the Year’ finalist. “We’d outgrown our previous premises and, with an eye on the long-term future development of the business and to host our ever expanding Driver CPC training service, a move made absolute sense.”

Nic’s new premises, which are at Gleneagles Court, Brighton Road, Crawley are double the size of their old one. Along with an open plan office, they include separate rooms for driver registration and training. If the guys have any ‘play time’ there’s also a full size pool table!

“As an indication of our confidence in the future outlook of Driver Hire Gatwick we’re buying the premises. To stay ahead in business, you’ve got to move with the times. And that’s exactly what we’re doing,” Nic Chaviaris concludes.
