Northern Commercials is continuing its push to help logistics providers in the North West to prosper in the current economic climate. This comes in the same week as the UK loses another four haulage firms, one of which is Greater Manchester based.
As the transport industry continues to be one of the UK’s hardest hit sectors following the recession, the rising cost of fuel and increasing taxes, Northern Commercials has strengthened used vehicle sales from its Manchester base and also online with a dedicated sales page website.
As Northern Commercials’ bigger partners update their fleets or have no further use for a particular vehicle, many used vehicles find their way back to the dealer. These are often ideal for smaller operations, start ups or those looking to economise. As the vehicles were originally supplied and in many instances maintained by Northern Commercials, the customer can be sure that the used vehicle is in peak condition.
The company also offers a range of flexible financing options, and in an industry where cashflow is key this could make the life of the logistics provider much easier in uncertain financial times.
John Bullock, Sales and Marketing Director of Northern Commercials said: “With logistics continuing to suffer our aim is to be as flexible as possible to help our customers continue trading and in turn, help the wider industry. Working in partnership is key to surviving tough times and keeping the industry moving.”
