TIP TRAILER Services has struck a deal with Ryder to acquire its trailer leasing and maintenance business, which will save 133 jobs.
Purchasing Ryder Trailer Leasing and Mobile Maintenance Services means TIP will add around 3,550 trailers and a workshop in Lichfield, as well as two ‘parking locations’ in Shepshed and Manchester, to its portfolio.
Bob Fast, TIP president and CEO, said: “Acquiring the trailer leasing and maintenance business of Ryder Ltd is another key milestone in our growth path. It increases our UK and Ireland footprint, allowing us to improve service offering and infrastructure in areas where we have gaps today.”
