NORCROSS, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 5, 2013--
FleetCor Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: FLT), a leading global provider of
fuel cards and workforce payment products to businesses, today announced
the successful implementation of its Global FleetNet (GFN) fuel card
processing system for Shell in the Philippines.
Shell selected FleetCor’s GFN platform as its global standard to be
implemented in up to 35 Shell markets in Asia and Europe during 2013/14.
This initial implementation is part of a 10-year contract with Shell
that FleetCor has, in partnership with CGI - one of the leading
independent information technology and business process services firms
in the world. Future plans include the further deployment of GFN in
seven additional Shell Asia markets and 27 European territories during
2013/2014.
“The successful GFN deployment in the Philippines in conjunction with
CGI is quite meaningful. It confirms that our GFN system is fully
capable of operating at the heart of a total platform solution that can
meet the needs of large multi-national, multi-currency clients,” said
Ron Clarke, FleetCor Chairman and CEO. “We further expect that this
initial implementation will attract additional outsourcing business to
the FleetCor and CGI service from around the world, which in turn gives
FleetCor the ability to build deeper relationships with and value for
those partners in the fuel card space.”
FleetCor began developing GFN in 2008 and has invested significantly to
bring the platform to market.
