In Poland, we can observe the dynamic development of the TSL industry. Our country is the largest road carrier in Europe, with over 33,000 registered international transport companies operating a fleet of more than 205,000 vehicles – this is an approx. 11% increase compared to the previous year (BTM – GITD data, 2016). To effectively manage a fleet in such a rapidly developing market, conscious entrepreneurs can take advantage of several helpful solutions.
One of the most popular is fuel cards. What is the reason for their success? First and foremost, the cards allow for significant savings on fuel costs, provide a sense of security – as transactions are cashless, make life easier for the accounting department, and offer a whole range of additional services, from paying road tolls, through car washes and maintenance, to VAT refunds. So, how much can you save? Of course, this depends on many factors, such as the size of the fleet or the card we choose. Before making a decision to use the services of a specific company, it is therefore worth looking at all the offers available on the market, analyzing them, and choosing the one that will allow for achieving maximum benefits.
A review of fuel cards – a comprehensive, cross-sectional summary that gathers the most important information about key card issuers in Poland and Europe in one place, will be available at the TransPoland Translogistica trade fair. The review focuses on issues such as the number of acceptance points in the country and abroad, and on additional services with which issuers make their product more attractive. It was not created only for owners of large fleets. It will also be useful for those who own a few vehicles.
The information gathered in the online version of the review does not, however, constitute the full, final offer of the described companies. To obtain it, you do not need to send dozens of emails with inquiries – just show up at the TransPoland Translogistica trade fair between November 8 and 10, 2017, at EXPO XXI Warsaw. All companies included in the summary are among the exhibitors at the fair, where for three days they will present their services at the largest meeting of TSL industry professionals in this part of Europe. The fair will therefore be a unique opportunity to meet with representatives of companies offering cards and check which one will work for your company. You can register for participation on the fair’s website.
