UK tropical produce importer Utopia has replaced a multi-brand forklift fleet at its Lincolnshire distribution centre with Atlet forklifts.

Utopia logistics manager Ian Davis said the company's old forklift fleet was no longer adequate for the job.

"We had to draw the line and move to a single-supplier arrangement," Davis said.

After receiving tenders from three forklift companies, Utopia selected four Atlet Piccolo PLL pedestrian pallet trucks, four Presto PLP stand-on pallet trucks and two Atlet UNS Tergo reach trucks to move 2,400 pallet loads of tropical fruit and vegetables each week.

Both parties declined to comment on the value of the contract.
