Samworth sends MAN TGX to Transaid 26 October 2018

Samworth Brothers Supply Chain is the latest business to donate a training vehicle to Transaid, for use in the charity’s driver training project in Uganda.

This is the first pledge of support from Samworth, and the MAN TGX truck has been shipped more than 6,000 miles to the Professional Driver Training – Uganda (PDT-U) scheme.

Ian Cooper, regional fleet manager at Samworth Brothers Supply Chain, says: “Having the MAN available will prove so beneficial to the PDT-U project in helping drivers to learn new skills to ensure a safer working environment. Being able to contribute to its success is such a rewarding experience for us and we would not hesitate to assist Transaid again in the future.”

The MAN truck joins a similarly specified Volvo FH tractor, donated by Volvo Trucks earlier this year. The vehicles will both be used in Uganda to haul a platform trailer – donated by W H Malcolm – loaded with an empty container for training purposes.
