Case Study: Elias Wilf achieves 100% fleet uptime and faster expansion with Ryder Full Service Lease

Elias Wilf - Customer Case Study

Elias Wilf, a fourth-generation family-run distributor of hard surface flooring products, faced the challenge of optimizing its fleet to support a major business model shift and expansion into new markets. Their existing leased vehicles were problematic and not suited to hauling heavy materials like ceramic tiles. To overcome this, they partnered with Ryder to implement a Full Service Lease solution.

Ryder provided a customized fleet of heavy-duty trucks with specialized features like high-capacity liftgates and double-side doors, perfectly tailored to Elias Wilf's needs. This solution delivered 100% vehicle uptime, giving the company access to a vast 24/7 repair network and enabling superior on-time performance. The measurable impact was significant, as Ryder's support was integral in helping Elias Wilf grow from the 48th ranked distributor nationally to a consistent top-three industry leader.
