It feels like a lifetime ago since we at BusinessGiftUK.com took delivery of our very first electric vehicle: the Citroen C-Zero. With a "top" range of 90 miles, we’d watch those digits drop faster than the temperature on a Preston winter morning just driving into the city centre! Fast forward through a Nissan Leaf, a VW E-up, and an MG5, and today we bid a fond farewell to our GWM ORA 03.

As a local business, sustainability isn't just a buzzword for us, it’s how we operate. We’ve been recycling since before the council even rolled out the bins! We always aim to:

 * Buy Local: Supporting our Lancashire neighbours whenever practical.

 * Promote Eco-Conscious Giving: Recommending cost-effective, sustainable promotional gifts to help our clients reduce their footprint.

 * Invest in Renewables: Our registered office is equipped with solar panels and its own charging point.

This week saw "Changeover Day," and we are thrilled to welcome a sleek, all-electric Vauxhall Frontera to the fleet. A massive shout-out to our friends at 21st Century Leasing in Preston. Their communication was top-tier, securing us a fantastic deal on this brand-new model before it had even rolled off the production line.

Our EVs handle the lion's share of our local Lancashire travel. If your business clocks up significant local mileage, we highly recommend exploring the current electric contract hire deals. Between the various employee schemes and generous tax incentives, it’s a smart move for both the planet and your bottom line.

See you on the road (silently)!
