Sunbelt Rentals UK and Ireland has signed a multi-year preferred supplier agreement with facilities transformation company, Mitie.
Effective from 1 May 2024, the agreement establishes Sunbelt Rentals as the preferred equipment rental supplier for Mitie across all areas of its business.
Sunbelt Rentals and Mitie share a similar set of values both prioritising sustainability, exceptional customer service, and delivering social value across the local communities they work in.
The partnership, says Sunbelt Rentals solidifies its position in the industry and serves as a testament to its commitment to supporting the facilities management sector and its evolving requirements.
Phil Parker, Sunbelt Rentals’ Chief Executive Officer, said: “We are proud to be supporting Mitie as their preferred rental equipment supplier. We have worked closely with Mitie to build a trusted partnership around our shared values. Our continuous investment in sustainable equipment and innovative technologies will enable Mitie to enhance their operations and better serve their customers.
“This agreement is a fantastic way to mark the beginning of Sunbelt 4.0, our new five-year growth strategy, as we focus on prioritising, elevating, and enhancing everything we do to support our customers.”
Shaun Carroll, Mitie’s Chief Procurement Officer added: “We are thrilled to have signed this agreement with Sunbelt Rentals, who are now our sole provider of plant and hire equipment across the entire Mitie Group.
“Streamlining and simplifying our procurement processes is key to our Preferred Supplier Optimisation Strategy, and Sunbelt Rentals’ simple ordering process makes it easier and more efficient for our customers and colleagues to access the equipment they need.
