Private Truck Consultants

Michael Annan – Chief Executive Officer

Michael Annan founded Private Truck Consultants in 1994 after nearly 30 years leasing industry experience, including P & L management with major truck leasing companies and finance leasing with large institutional lenders. In addition to gaining tremendous proprietary knowledge of the truck leasing business, he learned firsthand the cutting edge financing techniques necessary to reduce borrowing costs, and how to minimize maintenance and repair costs and other fleet operating expenses.

Since the inception of Private Truck Consultants, Annan has shared his expertise on a “no savings, no fee” basis with companies operating fleets from five to five hundred vehicles, resulting in his clients saving millions of dollars annually in fleet and lease costs.

Annan’s philosophy on being successful in this business: ”Our unique knowledge and skills enable us to help our clients get the highest quality lease services at the lowest possible cost. Plus, we are actively involved throughout the entire process until the job is complete and savings are delivered.”
