Mercedes-Benz CharterWay, the international commercial vehicle, financial services, contract hire and fleet management arm of Daimler Group, has announced the top performers of its Business Managers Academy.

The top three performers were announced at a dinner held at Tower Hotel in London, following a tough year of competition within the Business Managers Academy.

Steve Walker from Ciceley Commercials in Bolton, Alan Stevens from Sparshatts of Kent and Steve Horseman from Gerard Mann, part of Inchcape, finished top of the league table, and were all rewarded with a holiday for two to Dubai.

In order to win the holidays, the business managers had to exceed their allocated sales targets over the year, which included volume of sales, finance penetration and insurance products, but they were also evaluated in other business areas such as reporting and documentation error percentage.
