New Trailers
We have just purchased 12 new Montracon Clearwater Tri-Axel curtain-sider trailers all in the distinctive Sissons livery.


The purchase of these trailers followed the purchase of an initial 6 trailers in 2003 after being pleased with the price and quality.

  New Britvic Contract Awarded
GW Sissons & Son Ltd signed a new contract with Britvic Soft Drinks Ltd on April 14th 2004 to continue providing transport. Sissons retained the returnables side of the contract, making returns to major and regional brewers UK wide from Leeds and the new Returnable Distribution Centre at Centurion Park, Tamworth.
The retention of this contract is partly responsible for the extention of our fleet.

20 New Fodens for 2003
Sissons are pleased to announce the purchase of 20 brand new Fodens for March 2003. These vehicles are from the Alpha range incorporating the Cummins 420 engine.
This purchase represents a major shift from the previously 100% Seddon Atkinson fleet.
The decision to change manufacturer was based upon the need to update to a newer cab with better facilities and comfort for our drivers which the Alpha cab delivers. By purchasing Foden, Sissons is still able to maintain its close relationship with the Pelican Group as Sissons main dealer.
