Performance Direct Celebrates Award-Winning Vehicle Security Partnership
We're proud to share that Grove & Dean, which Performance Direct is a trading name of, has received international recognition for its partnership with vehicle security specialist Tracker Network UK.
The partnership has been named the winner of the Best Global Insurance & Insurtech Collaboration Award at the 2026 Global Insurtech Awards, recognising the success of the Tracker Nano scheme and its contribution to vehicle theft protection.
Recognising a Successful Partnership
Grove & Dean became the first insurance broker to participate in the Tracker Nano scheme in 2021, bringing together specialist insurance knowledge and innovative vehicle recovery technology.
Since the partnership began, more than 25,000 Tracker Nano devices have been supplied to Grove & Dean policyholders, across all of their brands, with the scheme helping to recover stolen vehicles worth approximately £2.4 million.
The award highlights the value of collaboration between insurance providers and vehicle security specialists, particularly as vehicle theft continues to be a concern for motorists across the UK.
Making Vehicle Security More Accessible
One of the key benefits of the Tracker Nano scheme is its simplicity.
The discreet tracking device is included with eligible Performance Direct insurance policies, meaning customers don't need to purchase separate tracking equipment or arrange an additional subscription.
Unlike traditional vehicle tracking systems, Tracker Nano remains dormant during everyday use. If a vehicle is reported stolen, the device can be activated to assist Tracker's recovery specialists in locating it.
This approach offers an additional layer of protection, particularly for owners of specialist or higher-value vehicles, motorhomes and vehicles considered more vulnerable to theft.
A Shared Commitment to Protecting Motorists
As a trading name of Grove & Dean, Performance Direct shares the same commitment to delivering specialist insurance solutions that offer customers value, reassurance and peace of mind.
The international recognition of Grove & Dean's partnership with Tracker demonstrates how combining insurance expertise with innovative security technology can make a meaningful difference to vehicle owners.
We're delighted to celebrate this achievement and the continued success of a partnership focused on helping motorists protect the vehicles that matter to them.
