A new Mitsubishi Fuso Canter is helping take the sting out of deliveries for Louth, Lincolnshire-based beehive manufacturer EH Thorne. The 7.5-tonne Canter provides a payload of 3,240kg, which helps keep the operation running sweetly.
MD Paul Smith says: "Our beehives are manufactured from timber and delivered in flat-pack kit form, so it's weight rather than volume that is the limiting factor as far as our distribution operation is concerned.
"The Canter's exceptional carrying
capacity is already making an important contribution to improved efficiency." Supplied by Lincoln dealer H&L Garages, the Canter 7C18 has a 180hp 5.0-litre engine, a Hatcher sleeper cab conversion and box body by Williams Coachworks of Hull.
