SCANIA (Great Britain) Ltd has won a major order for a minimum of 2,250 trucks from Consortium Purchasing, an operation led by William Stobart, executive chairman of GreenWhiteStar Acquisitions, which owns Eddie Stobart, The Pallet Network, iForce etc, and Allan Jenkinson, owner of AW Jenkinson Forest Products, all supplied by Scania dealers Haydock Commercial Vehicles Ltd and Graham Commercials Ltd over the coming two years, representing Scania’s largest ever European order for civilian trucks.
‘We are absolutely delighted to have placed this order with Scania, especially in such challenging and uncertain times,’ commented William Stobart.
‘Scania’s latest generation of vehicles, which we have now operated for three years, are continuing the long tradition of reliability and good fuel performance. This, along with the consistently high levels of service we receive from the Scania network, is why we have chosen Scania to fulfil a large part of our truck requirements.’
