Having purchased a number of Volvo’s over the years, FJ Need’s Transport Manager, Simon Platt commented that, “I have always been impressed with the extras that Volvo provides and their value for money.” He added that, “As our drivers are away from home for up to five days at a time, comfort is paramount.”

FJ Need (foods) Limited will use the FH-500’s to distribute their extensive range of cheese products across the UK and parts of Europe.
