Swift set to offer motorhome hire
Leading British caravan and motorhome manufacturer Swift has announced it will be launching a new motorhome hire business in March, becoming the first UK company of its kind to do so.
Swift Go motorhome hire’s first depot will be based in Stockport, on the outskirts of Manchester, and there are plans to expand the operation to six depots at key locations around the country by 2022.
Swift claims that Swift Go will aim to bring the qualities and values synonymous with its brand name into the rental market in a simple and straightforward way.
Swift Group Finance Director, Richard Smeaton, said: “We’re committed to making motorhome hire as simple as possible. We include everything from bike racks, bedding and towels to pans, crockery and kitchen utensils.
“We’ve also equipped our vans with on-board wifi so people can stay connected during their holidays, and outdoor furniture for relaxing with a barbecue on a summer’s evening.”
The initial Swift Go fleet, which includes its Escape and Select leisure vehicles, will comprise 50 vehicles, set to be increased to 70 by the summer. All Swift Go hire vehicles will also benefit from the company’s ingenious Swift Command smartphone app to control certain settings on the vehicle, as well as a complimentary breakfast welcome pack.
