Mercedes-Benz Vans paws for thought at Crufts 2017

Wednesday 22nd March 2017 Get our latest news into your inbox

Already attracting a long list of canine-related customers from dog walkers to animal charities and pet transport, Mercedes-Benz Vans is this year exhibiting its dog-friendly vehicles at Crufts, the world’s largest dog show, taking place 9-12 March 2017 at the NEC, Birmingham.

Representatives from Mercedes-Benz Vans will be in Hall 2 on stand 2-5 and 2-6 to highlight how the award-winning range of vehicles, including a Vito Tourer and Citan crew van displayed on stand, can help keep dog-owners and businesses moving with the added benefits customers get when choosing the three-pointed star.

Steve Bridge, Managing Director, Mercedes-Benz Vans UK Ltd, said: “Anyone who knows me knows how passionate I am about animal welfare, being a very proud dog owner to a wonderful Westie called Gilbert.

“The business touchpoints that come from being a dog owner, from groomers to walkers to veterinary practices and everything in between all have a requirement for safe vehicles to carry our four-legged friends, so Crufts provides a great opportunity to show how our vans can be adapted to suit.”

In addition to the award-winning levels of safety across the range of vans, Mercedes-Benz customers also benefit from ‘out of hours’ maintenance across more than 110 Mercedes-Benz Vans service points throughout the length and breadth of the UK, and when out on the road, free roadside assistance across the UK and Europe that comes as part of the 30 year free MobiloVan cover with every Mercedes-Benz Vans vehicle purchase.

🐝 From Hive to Jar! 🍯

Today we visited @eastlancshospice with our Beekeeper John to watch how he turns our MerceBEES hard work into delicious honey! 🌼

It was fantastic to share the experience with the hospice’s staff and patients, showing how the honeycomb is spun, sieved, and jarred to create the finished product.

This year, we’re proud to be selling our Ciceley honey with all profits donated to our charity partner, East Lancashire Hospice – supporting the incredible work they do every day. 💛

Our MerceBEES have been busy since we first introduced four hives and 320,000 bees to our Blackburn and Darwen sites as part of our ongoing sustainability journey. 🐝

⚽ Ciceley Takes on the Vantasy Football League! ⚽

Today, our Ciceley football team proudly represented us at the Mercedes-Benz Vantasy Football League at none other than St George’s Park – the home of England football!

Competing alongside eight teams made up of van drivers and Mercedes-Benz Van dealers from across the country, our squad battled hard and made it all the way to the semi-finals, finishing an impressive 3rd place overall! 🥉💪

The Vantasy Football initiative is about more than just football – it’s a fantastic campaign supporting mental health awareness for van drivers, many of whom work in isolating roles. We`re proud to support this important cause. 💙

Rob Claringbold, Gary Bridge, Jack Burgess, Matthew Coombe, Alex Lewis, Lee Holden, and Damian Holroyd – a brilliant mix from across our Sales, Service, IT, Accounts and Management teams.

Well played, team! 👏⚽
