Barloworld winning JCB contract

Cant believe that Barloworld are going to buy 94 teletrucks from JCB as part of the contract that they have been awarded to be the JCB service provider, am almost certain Hyster will not be happy with this. I see in the article that Barloworld are saying that the teletrucks will be used for specilaised lifting requirements, what a load of Bull. I have been to the JCB factories on numerous occassions and seen the Teletrucks in operation, not any special lifting reuquiremenst as far as I am aware. Think this is just Barloworld selling their soul.

I'm sure Briggs would of wanted this but maybe it might have been all done before Briggs took on the Yale dealership. The Cat bit might have put JCB of a bit. But i was thinking about TC Harrison i wonder what they think.

JCB will not use a lift truck suplier who they consider to be a competitor such as Caterpillar.

But why not Yale though if they use them in the States?

Is this the first instance of the two large NACCO dealers deciding not to compete with each other???

Business is Business i could not see JCB wanting any other truck but theres in there factories. All Barlow have done is say we will buy your trucks for the contract im suppressed. The local JCB dealer did not get the contract.
