Swindon, UK: FMT Logistics has taken delivery of its first Renault T520 High trucks.

They will work on FMT Logistics’ refrigerated wok pulling trailers in the UK and Europe.

Sparks Commercials supplied the new Renault truck taht join a 23 vehicle fleet.

Filipe Mendes, director, FMT Logistics director, said: “We always have two or three different manufacturers in our fleet and we are very happy with Renault Trucks and the service they and Sparks Commercials provide.”

The 13 litre engined, T520 High is a 6×2 pusher with Optidriver gearbox and automatic clutch. The vehicle comes with a raft of optional extras including roof mounted air horns, roof deflector, heated luxury seat, 40 litre fridge, one-touch electric windows, leather steering wheel, and cruise control.

“The T High is specifically designed for the type of work FMT Logistics does. There is plenty of space in the cab and we have specified the optional extras on top to ensure the driver has everything he needs to be comfortable especially as he is out on the road all week. We have received excellent initial feedback and have a further two T Highs on order,” Mendes said.

“In our four years of trading, we have seen massive growth in our business and have been fortunate enough to have survived a pandemic and continue to attract new business.

“This has only been possible due to the hard work of all our drivers, planners and everyone involved with FMT Logistics. Like all businesses the increased costs on fuel and equipment is challenging but with such a great team and vehicles such as the T High, we are confident that our business will continue to flourish,” Mendes said.
