The French logistics provider has bought XPAuto and will integrate its digital platforms to enable smart scheduling and asset management capability alongside a range of customer facing applications
French logistics company Gefco has bought XPAuto, which provides fleet management, vehicle logistics and quality services in the UK.
Gefco said it will be integrating XPAuto’s digital platforms XPAssetSmart and XPAssetCare into its own existing platforms. The UK firm has a suite of digital platforms through which it can manage the booking, delivery, collection, repair and de-fleeting of demo fleets. XPAuto also provides bespoke fleet services for press and events, including single vehicle services, as well as premium retail handovers.
Gefco said it was planning to build an IT network between its own services and those adopted through the XPAuto takeover. Doing so, it said, would enable smart scheduling and asset management capability alongside a range of customer facing applications.
