As well as being a Fraikin customer, Derbyshire-based Middlebrook will become part of Fraikin’s service network.
Rick Bromley, owner of Middlebrook Transport, explains: “Fraikin very quickly understood our business and worked hard to tailor a cost-effective package that suits our needs and theirs.
“We get all the benefits of full-service contract hire and can use our existing six-bay workshop space for maintenance on the new trucks and for any additional work – if we have the capacity. It’s a win-win situation.”
The FORS Silver operator’s 47-strong truck fleet comprises mainly Mercedes and DAF tractors, either owned or on operating leases. It also has 130 trailers, with the fleet being used to transport concrete and steel to some of the biggest construction firms in the UK.
