Stagecoach strikes corporate deals

Aberdeen City Council and the University of Kent are the first two organisations to sign up to Stagecoach’s new direct corporate sales scheme. Stagecoach has developed a bespoke corporate product structure and booking tool via its app. The Aberdeen and Kent schemes were due to launch this month. “We look forward to resuming conversations with other potentially significant new corporate customers when Covid-19 restrictions are sufficiently relaxed,” said the operator. “We are looking to focus on business parks and major employers in rapidly growing cities with constrained parking, particularly those with a growing emphasis on demonstrating they are responsible employers. There is also an opportunity to deliver ready-made solutions in areas that may be investigating the introduction of workplace charging levies.”
