Special delivery for Eddie Stobart
13 December 2013
Eddie Stobart has placed a substantial order with Irish articulated forklift manufacturer Aisle-Master to provide a large fleet for its Contract Logistics and Warehousing Division

Twenty five Aisle-Masters have so far been delivered, another ten are due to be operational over the next twelve months and, as new opportunities for sites and contracts are identified, this number looks set to increase further.
The 2000kg capacity electric powered 20WHE models in operation in around 70% of Stobart’s warehousing network are bespoke units. They place and pick pallets that have been deposited in the goods-in bay by other forklifts or power pallet trucks. Versatile indoor/outdoor capability means that can also be used for offloading and yard work at sites with external pallet banks.
