Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

MV COMMERCIAL, the truck hire and used sales business based in Livingston, West Lothian, has opened its fourth site in the UK at Haydock, Lancashire.

The two-acre site will be home to 175 hire vehicles, operating with customers in an 80 mile radius of Manchester. Operations director Steven Cairns (pictured) says the depot also presents an opportunity to develop new business.

He says the new site comes off the back of the £4m deal it struck with former rental business TLS for 326 of its trucks and its customers, doubling its rental fleet and securing stock for the sales division. Rental manager Martin Shaw says the TLS deal increased its market share and allowed the firm to “retire older vehicles and provide newer vehicles for our existing customers” .

Cairns says the new site, based on the Haydock Cross Industrial Estate, will carry approximately 14 used vehicles. He also indicates that MV Commercial is looking to expand in other areas across the UK. ■
