The 60's
LeasePlan was formed in 1963 by a Dutch bank and a company that specialised in services provided to drivers. Together they came up with a concept of transparency, combined with the advantages of fleet finance. Dealing with customers in this way brought the concept of Open Calculation (Partner Plan) to life and it made so much sense to everyone that it became LeasePlan's philosophy. Everyone at LeasePlan has lived by this philosophy for over forty years. To this day this product remains unique to LeasePlan and is unrivalled by other products in the market.

The 70's
The Company took its first steps towards internationalisation by creating LeasePlan Belgium in 1972. LeasePlan Germany, France and the UK soon followed.

The 80's
LeasePlan branched out of Europe in the 80's, forming LeasePlan USA in 1983 and LeasePlan Australia in 1988.

The 90's
LeasePlan introduces Plan8, the web-based fleet reporting tool.

This millennium
LeasePlan Greece is the newest part of the global unit, giving the company a presence in 26 countries worldwide. LeasePlan has acquired and integrated Dial in the UK, Italy, Spain and France, and CSC in the US.
