Press Release: UVair Adds Additional Fuel Specialists Dedicated to Europe
and Australasia
Geneva (May 12, 2009) – UVair® announced that it has further enhanced its global presence by adding two additional fuel specialists dedicated to serving operators based in Europe
and Australasia.
With the addition of Barry Burton, UVair® Fuel Coordinator, to its European fuel team and by establishing BP Tan as UVair® Fuel Consultant for the Australasia region, UVair® now has five global fuel specialists, including four in Europe.
"We first established a dedicated European fuel team with the goal of providing Europe-based operators even greater personalized service and timely responses to their fuel needs by having dedicated resources in the regions in which they are based," said Greg Cox, Vice President, UVair®. "This regional approach has been very successful and well received by our clients, who value the ability to have face-to-face interaction with their fuel reps. As a result, we are continuing to add additional resources to our European UVair® fuel team to ensure we can continue to meet demand, and have decided to expand our global fuel presence to Australasia so that we can provide the same level of service for operators based in the Far East."
Burton and Tan are responsible for providing operational support and assistance with such items as fuel setups and more. Burton is based in Stansted, U.K. and Tan is based in Singapore.
The UVair® Fueling Card is accepted in more than 2,000 locations worldwide. It provides operators with opportunities for savings due to the volume buying power of its clients; it can be used for ground services along with fuel; and it is backed by a customer support team that provides support 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
