Built by people who’ve traded thousands of vehicles

Vangoo was founded by Jordan Franklin, who built and sold his commercial vehicle business, Vans365, to Cazoo. He’s spent years buying and selling vans at scale, and built Vangoo on what that experience taught him about how the trade should work.

The Vangoo journey

Jordan started out trading vans and grew that into Vans365, before selling it to Cazoo. At every stage he ran into the same problems holding the trade back and knew there was a better way to buy and sell. Vangoo is the result.

He’s since been joined by chairman Andy Kerr who brings significant commercial and tech experience to the business. Together they’re building Vangoo into the trade-only marketplace the industry has been missing.

Why Vangoo was built

Vangoo was built to bring consistency, clarity and control back into commercial vehicle trading.

Commercial vehicle trading has historically been fragmented and reliant on auctions, with multiple intermediaries, inconsistent condition information and layered fee structures that obscure true value. Vangoo is different. It’s a professional trading environment built specifically for dealers and fleet operators.

The mission is simple: to make commercial vehicle trading clear, fast and trusted.

Vangoo promise

At the heart of everything we do.

Fixed upfront pricing

Verified vehicle condition

No auction fees

Fast delivery

I spent years on the other side of this, buying and selling vans at scale, losing days at auction and watching fees quietly eat into every deal. Vangoo is the platform I always wanted and could never find. We built it for the trade, because we are the trade.

What they say about us…

The listings actually tell you what you need to know. Mileage, condition, the lot. I can make the decision without needing to pick up the phone.
Vans Direct
I’ve stopped bidding blind at auctions. With Vangoo I know what I’m buying before I commit and I can get what I need in a morning rather than a week.
Mark Wilkins
Vangoo was really straightforward to deal with and the vans have been solid every time. It’s the first place I go to.
