It has been an extraordinary few months for the Hireace team.
We are proud to share that Hireace has been named winner of the Excellence in Innovation award at the 2degrees Auckland Business Awards (South & East).
Coming right on the heels of being named HIANZ Hire Company of the Year — alongside celebrating our 30th anniversary in business — this recognition marks a major milestone for our entire network nationwide.
Rethinking Innovation in the Rental Fleet Industry
When people think of innovation, they often imagine complex software or tech start-ups. But in commercial vehicle and trailer hire, true innovation comes down to operational excellence and modern customer service.
For Hireace, driving innovation means focusing on three core areas:
- Listening to Customer Needs: Continually refining booking platforms, branch operations, and trailer self-service stations to ensure every pickup and drop-off is seamless.
- Practical Transport Solutions: Finding practical, common-sense fleet solutions that help trades, businesses, and everyday Kiwis stay mobile across New Zealand.
- Empowering Branch Teams: Providing our nationwide teams with the tools and support needed to deliver exceptional service on every job.
Built on Teams, Customers, and Partners
Industry awards and business milestones don’t happen in isolation. They are built on the combined effort of everyone involved:
- Our Nationwide Teams: The branch staff and operational teams across the country who show up for every pickup, phone call, and vehicle check.
- Our Customers: The tradespeople, local organizations, and drivers who have chosen Hireace trip after trip over the last three decades.
- Our Industry Partners: Our thanks to the Auckland Business Chamber, 2degrees, and Z Energy NZ for supporting local business growth and hosting a fantastic event.
30 years in business is a milestone that puts every decision about service, fleet, and people into focus. Here’s to keeping New Zealand moving — today and into the future.
