Welcome to the Devon Business League 2025!!!

Thanks to all of those who made it to this mornings launch breakfast, we all appreciate your support for such a worthy local cause.

CORPORATE CAR SERVICES…
More than one person travelling for business?
Then we are probably a more cost effective alternative to the train.

Apart from the cost of each individual’s ticket, there is the taxi to the station and another one at the other end to the business venue. Then take into account the noise in the carriage and everyone else’s bugs/germs...and then hope the train is actually running.

Or you could use a clean, hygienic car, expertly driven by one of our chauffeurs, door to door. Full 5G Wi-Fi with loads of leg room and a quiet, work friendly environment surrounded by luxury. Arrive refreshed and leave with your chauffeur waiting for you. No need to rush the last item on the agenda... after all there’s no train to catch.
