John C Breen chooses Mercedes-Benz

Sunday, January 24th, 2010

Wexford-based freight forwarding and distribution specialists, John C Breen & Company Limited, whose headquarters are in Ferns, has increased its vehicle fleet with the purchase of two new Mercedes-Benz Actros trucks.

Pictured at the handover are Peader Kehoe (transport manager) and John C Breen (owner & managing director, John C Breen & Company) with Pat Kenny (general manager, Somers Commercials).

The two new trucks – a model 2529 curtainside 6 x 2 rigid unit and a 2548 6 x 2 tractor unit – will augment their existing fleet of 35 vehicles, all of which are used to service their nationwide distribution network.

One of Ireland’s leading freight forwarding and distribution specialists, John C Breen & Company views the purchase as an important investment for the future. Their managing director John Breen noted that, notwithstanding the current economic climate, the addition of the two new units will strengthen the company’s competitiveness and increase its capacity for growth in the future.

Both units were purchased from local authorised Mercedes-Benz dealer Somers Commercials of Camolin.
