Merchants Fleet Management Receives 2014 Auto Finance Excellence Award for Community Service
HOOKSETT, N.H., Oct. 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Merchants Fleet Management proudly accepted the Auto Finance Excellence Award for Community Service at the 2014 Auto Finance Summit on October 6, 2014.
For over 50 years, Merchants has been owned and operated by the Singer family who is committed to its customers, employees and community. Among the company's many charitable efforts, Auto Finance specifically recognized Merchants Fleet Management for their annual Gail Singer Memorial Blood Drive. Started in 1984, the drive has been conducted through the American Red Cross and has grown to become the largest single day blood drive in America. Last year, the event set a national record collecting over 1,500 pints of blood. The award acknowledges company-wide efforts to encourage volunteering; a generous action Merchants strongly encourages their employees and community members to partake in.
Owner and Chairman of the Board at Merchants Fleet Management, Gary Singer, gave his sentiments, "Merchants is honored to receive this award. I believe in three precepts in order to achieve success in business; take care of your customers, take care of your employees and give back to your community. This is a culture that we have nurtured over our years in the automotive and fleet management business. We are very proud of this culture and of our employees in their initiatives to give back to the community."
Since 2005, the Auto Finance awards have celebrated outstanding achievements by companies and executives in the automotive lending and leasing industry. Award recipients are based on results from Auto Finance's performance scale rating initiative which digitally compiles responses from 3,700 dealers in June and July. Winners are announced at the summit event and are also spotlighted in an issue of Auto Finance News. Beyond dynamic community service, other distinctions include awards for competitive achievement, innovative technology, exceptional customer service and outstanding leadership.
