British Industrial Truck Association (BITA) members have voted unanimously not to raise membership fees for next year.
The association's board proposed keeping 2008 membership fees at the same level as this year and members voted unanimously for the proposal at a meeting of BITA's Truck Suppliers Group and Components and Services Group last Tuesday.
BITA secretary general James Clark says the association's good financial stewardship and healthy balance sheet enabled this decision to be made.
BITA is the sole provider of UK industrial truck sales statistics contributed by and made available to association members.
