Ayvens top ranked supplier on Halton Housing Framework for supply of vehicles
Ayvens in the UK has secured the position of top-ranked supplier on the Halton Housing Framework managed by MUFG Corporate Markets (formerly Link Group)), following the completion of a national tendering process.
The Framework, which supports over 250 public sector organisations including housing associations, local authorities, NHS Trusts and emergency services, is designed to provide access to a wide range of fleet funding and management solutions across the UK. The agreement covers vehicles from cars and light commercials to heavy commercial and specialist fleets up to 44,000kg GVW.
Ayvens’ appointment as number one supplier is a direct result of its consultative approach, data-led insights and commitment to fleet decarbonisation. In the UK, Ayvens helps commercial and public sector fleets manage costs, reduce emissions, and improve operational uptime through tailored fleet strategies and smart funding models.
The Halton Housing Framework is structured around four distinct lots:
- Lot 1 – Contract hire of cars and light commercial vehicles (up to 5,000kg GVW)
- Lot 2 – Contract hire of specialist and commercial vehicles (over 5,000kg GVW)
- Lot 3 – Employee car salary sacrifice schemes
- Lot 4 – Flexi-hire (medium-term rental) solutions for vehicles in Lots 1 and 2
Jessica Chapman, Corporate Sales Director at Ayvens, commented:
"We’re pleased to be awarded a place on this well-established framework and honoured to be named number one supplier. This reflects our continued investment in providing value-driven solutions to the housing and public sectors. Through this framework, we look forward to working closely with organisations to support smarter fleet choices and accelerate their sustainability goals."
Judith Eadie, MUFG Corporate Markets (formerly Link Group), said:
“We are delighted to welcome Ayvens onto the Halton Housing Framework. Their investment in fleet and new technology is testament to their commitment to deliver the highest standards of service. We look forward to a long successful partnership.”
Organisations using the framework will also have access to Ayvens’ award-winning insights and digital tools, including TCO+ Insights – a suite of analytics and reporting capabilities designed to provide full visibility into fleet performance, cost drivers and strategic opportunities. Built on millions of data points from the UK’s largest leased vehicle portfolio, TCO+ helps fleet operators make informed decisions based on total cost of ownership, lifecycle planning, and environmental impact.
The appointment follows Ayvens' recent recognition as Leasing Company of the Year at both the 2024 GreenFleet Awards and the 2025 WhatVan? Awards, reinforcing its leadership in the UK leasing market.
