Jewson invests £7.7m in business
Coventry builders' merchant Jewson Tool Hire has invested £5.5m in 450 JCB machines. Tool Hire - the rental division of Jewson - has also invested in 200 Thwaites mini dumpers in a deal worth an additional £2.2m.
All the JCB machines and those manufactured by Thwaites will be supplied by JCB dealer Gunn JCB.
Richard Pedersen, Jewson Tool Hire director, said: "This is a significant investment which makes our fleet of micro and mini excavators one of the most modern in the industry.
"We are committed to offering our customers the most powerful and up-to-date machines around and this investment delivers on this promise."
JCB’s UK and Ireland sales director Yvette Henshall-Bell, added: "We are delighted to win this repeat business from Jewson’s Tool Hire division.
"JCB has supplied machines to the company for many years and it's testament to the quality of our range of mini and micro excavators and compaction equipment that we’ve secured this valuable business again."
