Linfox places order for 100 Volvo trucks 30 June 2011

Asian logistics operator Linfox has chosen Volvo Trucks as the supplier for 100 tractor units. The order consists of FM 11, FM 13 and FH trucks, all of which will be built locally at Volvo Trucks' production facility in Brisbane, Queensland.

"Linfox sets the standard for the [logistics] industry," says Arne Knaben, CEO of Volvo Group Australia. "The Linfox decision to buy Volvo trucks is a clear indicator that we are leading the way in the areas that really count,"

All the trucks meet the Euro 5 emission standards and were also selected for fuel efficiency and safety.

"Linfox's customers take environmental responsibilities seriously. They expect their suppliers to do so as well," comments Gary Bone, general manager of Volvo Trucks Australia.
