Morrisons has boosted its fleet serving the Rathbones bakery in Wakefield with 25 new vehicles.
The supermarket has taken delivery of the lightweight moving double deck trailers from Cheshire-based Tiger Trailers. Each have the capacity to hold 1,322 baskets – more than a 20% increase on the previous trailers serving the facility which could hold 1,080 baskets.
The new trailers feature ‘highly distinctive livery’ in the form of a ‘naked’ loaf of bread.
Rathbones produces nearly 50 types of products for the supermarket including hot cross buns, seeded loaves, crumpets, pancakes, naans and pitta.
