Briggs is a finalist

Forklift truck distributor, Briggs
Equipment, has been recognised for
its efforts to help a leading waste and
recycling firm save around ?220,000
over the next five years.

The Cannock-based firm was
amongst the finalists for the
prestigious customer services award at
this year’s UK Warehouse Association
(UKWA) Awards 2011. Finalists
were judged on evidence of customer
insight and a customer focused
culture within the organisation.

Briggs worked with Viridor to
install Speedshield on all forklift
trucks at its Skelmersdale facility. This
management software tool helped the
firm reduce damage costs by nearly
75% and reduce fuel consumption by
around 1000 to 2000 litres a month.
