Rumours.......

So has it happened then, has an investment company with a UK Nissan distributor in it's portfolio finally purchased a North West based Mitsubishi dealer ???

Will they still supply Nissan or will they go all green. Run both companies separately or close the doors on one of them ??

You are correct Phil.

Will they be a dealer for Doosan again, TCM (Re branded) or even HC.

Who knows

Don't loose sight of the whole picture. Just maybe this distributor is betting, to reduce a risk in order to counterbalance the merger of TCM Forklift and Nissan Forklift under the name of UniCarrier. This is in the pipeline and Nissan Forklift name will no longer be. The forklift line will include trucks produced by present day Nissan, Barrett, Atlet & TCM. Who ever receives the franchise will have a larger selection to choose from.

Shame that. Suppose most of the staff could be transferred to the newly acquired company.
Most of the better employees have left "Lying ****" rather than suffer at the hands of the in fighting, former directors. Could not see the potential of a once prosperous company.
Most of the potential was removed in dividends, never invested. Never mind eh...keep on sailing

Well, there are always job's in the wine section at bargain booze for you know who....LOL
