THE UK ARM OF global transport giant Kerry Logistics has just taken delivery of two new Iveco Stralis tractor units following a six-week trial.
The latest purchase by the Manchester-based operator follows the earlier acquisition of a number of Iveco Eurocargo trucks for the fleet.
UK logistics manager Mark Hunt explains: "Our heavy truck fleet has been 100% Scania for years, but our positive experiences with the Eurocargo tempted us to put a Stralis demonstrator on the fleet and really put it through its paces.
"Initially there was some resistance from the drivers," he admits. "But after two hours on board the Stralis they were converted."
