DRUMMONDVILLE, QUE. – – Location NRJ Leasing has just become a full-fledged member of NationaLease, one of the largest full-service truck-leasing organizations on the continent.
Location NRJ’s President Nicole Coderre says her company has been a part of NationaLease since 2005 but now, with full membership, her customers benefit from an expanded list of services and pricing advantages.
Location NRJ operates out of two branches; one in Drummondville, the other in St. Cuthbert, Que.
“We have both sides of the river covered,” Coderre joked.
NationaLease is based in Oakbrook Terrace Illinois and counts more than 600 operating locations across North America.
To join the family, you have to be big.
"In order to qualify for full membership [like Location NRJ NationaLease has done] each company was required to grow their leasing organization to at least 50 units in full service leasing or contract maintenance," NationaLease President Gene Scoggins said in an official statement.
"We are very proud to welcome these three exemplary companies into our network and consider each to be a valuable asset to the organization." The other two members are based in Texas.
As a full member in NationaLease, each company can take advantage of the organization’s combined purchasing power, while maintaining its independent business status.
NationaLease members also extend emergency road service to each other at 600 locations, providing repair, fuel, and substitute vehicles 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It enables trucks travelling across the country to be assured of reliable emergency servicesoutside their normal service area.
Other benefits of NationaLease membership include access to consulting services, industry-related seminars and education, and networking opportunities.
