Fraser Eagle is to transport thousands of young people across Britain and France after signing a multi-million pound contract with Kingswood.
Kingswood is one of the UK’s leading providers of educational school trips and tours.
Under the agreement Fraser Eagle will provide a fully-managed transport service to take school and youth groups to and from Kingswood’s 11 adventure activity centres in the UK and its adventure activity centre in France.
“We are delighted to have agreed this deal with Kingswood, which will see us operate thousands of coach journeys on an annual basis over the next three years,” says Fraser Eagle group managing director Kevin Dean.
“This is an important contract for Fraser Eagle as it sees us take our product into yet another new sector.
“We look forward to delivering an excellent transport service to Kingswood and forming a lasting partnership with them.”
Paul Gilbert, managing director of Kingswood, adds: “Our business has grown significantly in recent years and we now provide for around 150,000 schoolchildren every year.
