Established in 1989 and headquartered in Leeds, Zenith is a specialist independent leasing and fleet management provider offering two primary products: Contract Hire and Leasing (‘CHL’), which leases fleets of vehicles to the corporate market, and Salary Sacrifice, through which employers offer vehicles as an optional benefit to their employees. It has also a consumer offering, ZenAuto, to service the personal leasing and online vehicle purchasing market.
The company has a reputation for value and best-in-class customer service, an innovative online platform, and large, blue-chip, loyal client base. The UK fleet services market is a large, growing and resilient market worth c.£14bn (c.5m vehicles) thanks to increased outsourcing and employment growth. Salary sacrifice (through which employees lease cars for personal use) has tripled in the last three years and is expected to continue to grow over the next five years.
