Reynolds Catering Supplies, which distributes fresh fruit and vegetables, cheese and other dairy products to the foodservice industry, has signed a three-year renewal contract for SmartDrive Systems’ Assurance video-based driver safety programme.

Using the equipment, last year the wholesaler achieved a 30% reduction in collisions and made cuts in fuel consumption. In additon, insurance premiums were lowered, said Reynolds’ head of fleet, Steve White (pictured).

“We have been working with SmartDrive since 2009 and continue to generate excellent value from its video-based programme. It has become an integral part of our day-to-day operations.”

Founded in 1945, the wholesaler’s customers include London restaurant chains Itsu and Bill’s, as well as Pizza Express. It operates more than 250 vehicles.
