Warrington’s Mark Thompson Transport expands creating 25 new jobs

Haulage company Mark Thompson Transport Ltd (MTT) is set to increase its vehicle fleet and create new jobs as part of a seven-figure funding deal with NatWest and the bank’s asset finance partner Lombard.

The expansion will see 25 new jobs created.

The Warrington-based firm offers a 24/7 logistics service to customers throughout the UK.

The firm’s fleet includes Mercedes, Scania, Volvo, and Daf tractor units.

These are complemented with a mix of Tautliner, Box, Double Deck, Flat Trailers and Skeletal Slider Trailers to cope with a variety of client requirements.

MTT has acquired a new operating licence to facilitate its operation of 133 tractor units.

Managing director, Mark Thompson, said: “The new vehicles allow us to monitor our drivers’ carbon footprints.

“This data allows for better fuel efficiency, driver awareness of performance, which in turn makes us a more efficient business.

“The vehicles have been well received by our drivers and will enable MTT to serve our customers in the best way possible.”
