| John Mitchell started out in business with a second hand Albion FT3 in 1956, operating from his home town of Grangemouth. The business expanded over the years and in 1973 moved to a purpose built depot in the town’s Earls Road. Today’s fleet consists of around 100 vehicles and over 250 trailers, all of which are less than 5 years old. MAN trucks form the bulk of the operation, complimented by a number of Mercedes-Benz and a sprinkling of Scania models, pulling a variety of curtainsiders, flatbeds, skeletals and powder tanks. The recently modernised and extended 10 acre site also features purpose built offices, workshops, and extensive warehouse and storage facilities. Like Corgi, John Mitchell celebrated its 50th Anniversary in 2006 and bought this superb tractor unit; specially named ‘Grange Corgi’. Intellectual Property Rights licensed by DaimlerChrysler AG. |
