Romac Logistics strengthens fleet with 100 Tiger fridge double-deck trailers and 200 Renault Trucks T480 tractor units

Leading temperature-controlled logistics provider Romac Logistics has strengthened its fleet with the introduction of 100 state-of-the-art moving double-deck refrigerated trailers from Tiger Trailers, alongside 200 new Renault Trucks T480 tractor units supplied by local dealer, Diamond Trucks, continuing its long-standing relationship with the two manufacturers.

The investment supports Romac Logistics’ continued expansion across the UK and follows the opening of the company’s flagship, state-of-the-art distribution facility in Chesterfield. Together, these investments significantly increase capacity, enhance operational efficiency and ensure the business is well positioned to meet growing customer demand while maintaining the exceptional levels of service, safety and reliability on which its reputation has been built.

Designed for up to 54 pallets and fitted with Thermo King A500 single-temperature refrigeration units, the new Tiger moving double-deck refrigerated trailers increase payload capacity while reducing vehicle movements, supporting both operational efficiency and sustainability objectives. Engineered with operator safety and durability in mind, the trailers feature Tiger’s proven moving double-deck technology, enabling Romac Logistics to maximise efficiency across its temperature-controlled network.

The latest fleet investment also celebrates the long-standing partnerships that have supported Romac Logistics’ growth over a number of years. Working closely with Tiger Trailers, Diamond Trucks and Renault Trucks, Romac Logistics has continued to invest in innovative, reliable and sustainable transport solutions that enable the business to scale with confidence while delivering the exceptional service customers have come to expect.

Rob McAdoo, Founder of Romac Logistics, said: “This investment is about much more than adding new vehicles to our fleet. As Romac Logistics continues to grow, we’re investing in the infrastructure, equipment and partnerships that will support the next stage of our journey.

The opening of our flagship Chesterfield facility marked a significant milestone for the business, and it was essential that our fleet evolved alongside our infrastructure. These investments ensure we have the capacity, capability and resilience to support our customers as they continue to grow.

Our customers trust us to deliver safe, reliable and scalable logistics solutions, and that’s exactly what this investment enables. By increasing capacity, improving efficiency and embracing the latest vehicle technology, we’re strengthening our service offering while supporting our long-term growth strategy.

We’re also incredibly proud of the relationships we’ve built with Tiger Trailers, Renault Trucks UK and Diamond Trucks. These are genuine partnerships that have evolved alongside our business, and together we’re continuing to invest in the future.”

Darren Holland, Sales Director at Tiger Trailers, said: “We’re delighted to see Romac Logistics add these advanced Tiger double deck fridge trailers to their fleet, enabling them to transport a greater amount of chilled or frozen produce in fewer journeys. It has been a pleasure collaborating with their team again and we look forward to continuing to deepen our partnership over the coming months”.

Tiger Trailers has previously supplied Romac Logistics with 60 ambient curtainsider trailers and 20 refrigerated single-deck trailers, making this latest order another milestone in the long-standing relationship between the two businesses.”

Ian Griffiths, Head of Fleet Sales, Renault Trucks UK, said: “Romac Logistics’ significant investment in its fleet, including 200 new Renault Trucks T480s, reflects the ambition and growth of the business and its commitment to delivering the highest quality service to customers. We’re proud to be supporting that growth with trucks designed to deliver improved fuel efficiency and total cost of ownership, greater sustainability and maximum uptime, together with the latest advances in safety and driver comfort.

We thank Romac Logistics for its continued confidence in Renault Trucks and Diamond Trucks, and look forward to building on our long-standing relationship as the business delivers on its ambitions.”

The latest investment in these Tiger fridge trailers and Renault Trucks reinforces Romac Logistics’ long-term growth strategy and ongoing commitment to investing in its people, partnerships and operational capabilities. As the business continues to expand its nationwide network and customer base, the additional capacity, enhanced efficiency and continued investment in trusted partnerships will ensure Romac Logistics remains at the forefront of temperature-controlled logistics, delivering safe, reliable and sustainable supply chain solutions.
