Limerick-based company, STL Group, have this week announced a multi-million euro deal that will see the company take delivery of 43 high-efficiency Scania Euro trucks as part of its expanding fleet.
 
The deal was brokered between STL Logistics, part of the STL Group and Westward Scania – with the support of local Scania dealer Nolan’s of Castleisland – and the new trucks will be available as part of STL Logistics all-Ireland transportation fleet. 
 
STL operates in Ireland, the UK and Europe and works mainly with companies in the food and drinks, electronics, medical and packaging sectors with particular expertise in the FMCG category.

It already has more than 100 vehicles providing transport and delivery services to more than 200 companies including Diageo, Weetabix, Ballygowan Britvic, the Kerry Group and GlaxoSmithKline.
 
Chief Executive of Shannon Transport Group, Michael O’Riordan commented, "This is a significant investment for us and one that underscores our commitment to continuous improvement at every level of the business.

"We are always looking for ways – big and small – in which we can deliver even better services and solutions for our clients, and the new Scania fleet will certainly enhance our supply chain logistics capabilities.

"Looking at the bigger picture, our investment in new vehicles is part of Ireland’s and in particular Limericks wider economic recovery and in that context we are extremely happy to be in strong growth mode. Business has been good this year and we are confident that the upturn will continue into next year and beyond."
