Centrica Business Solutions scoops Jaguar Land Rover supplier excellence award

Centrica Business Solutions is honoured to have received a silver award home at the sixth Jaguar Land Rover Global Purchasing Supplier Excellence Awards. 

The Awards, which returned after a two-year break due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, celebrate outstanding achievements within the global supply chain. Winners are recognised for their extraordinary contribution to Jaguar Land Rover’s business, cost transformation, and operational delivery over the course of the last year.

Centrica Business Solutions supplies gas and electricity to Jaguar Land Rover and was given the Sustainability award for its spirit of partnership in delivery of efficient technologies and transparent pricing.

Neil Marsons, Jaguar Land Rover Director of Global Purchasing, commented: “Despite the well-documented global challenges impacting the entire automotive industry, our network of dedicated suppliers have provided us with unflinching support to allow us to continue producing our portfolio of luxury vehicles. It's important we recognise that, and this year's ceremony was a wonderful opportunity to do just that and we look forward to continuing those relationships with our suppliers as we look to deliver the next chapter for our business."

The electrification of the Jaguar and Land Rover brands is at the heart of business’ Reimagine strategy, a vision to create the world’s most desirable modern luxury vehicles and services set against a canvas of true sustainability. 

Justin Jacober, Managing Director UK&I at Centrica Business Solutions, said, “We’re delighted to be recognised for the positive impact we are having on the Jaguar Land Rover business. Partnerships are most effective when both parties work together to succeed and that’s certainly the case with Jaguar Land Rover and we’re excited at the prospect of developing the partnership further to reach a net zero future.”
