Livingston, Scotland – MV Commercial, through its dedicated rental division MV Truck Rental, has delivered a fleet of new MAN Truck & Bus vehicles to Frank’s The Flooring Store as both businesses continue their expansion across the United Kingdom.

The deal, which includes seven MAN TGL 10.180 specialist commercial vehicles configured as box trucks alongside an additional curtainsider vehicle, further strengthens the long-standing relationship between Frank’s and MV Truck Rental.

Craig Richards, Transport Manager at Frank’s, explained that after years of dependable service from previous vehicles supplied by MV Commercial, the combination of competitive pricing, reliable support and a highly personal approach made MV the natural choice for the company’s continued fleet growth.

The trucks will operate from Frank’s new Newcastle branch, supporting deliveries throughout the North East region. While the business has traditionally relied on box trucks for flooring deliveries, the addition of a curtainsider reflects growing demand for laminate flooring products, where easier side access and faster loading provide significant operational advantages.

“For a company like Frank’s, the MAN TGL 10.180 trucks are the ideal delivery solution,” said Laura Raeburn, New Business Manager at MV Truck Rental. “Not only are they highly efficient and help reduce running costs, but they also offer the reliability businesses need to maintain demanding delivery schedules.

“Combined with MV Commercial’s full R&M support package, which comes as standard with our hire solutions, the vehicles will help support Frank’s 48-hour delivery service. Alongside the vehicles themselves, our personal service and ability to tailor solutions to customer requirements is what really sets us apart.”

All vehicles were supplied with new chassis and tail lifts and finished in Frank’s distinctive livery, with painting, fabrication and vehicle wrapping completed in-house at MV Commercial’s fabrication and livery centre in Livingston, Scotland.

“Having our fabrication, painting and wrapping operations all based at head office allows us to improve turnaround times and deliver bespoke fleet solutions more efficiently than many competitors,” Laura added.
