Hanbury Riverside director, Lee Smith, said: “As we approach 40 years since Hanbury Riverside’s founding, moving into a much bigger site feels like a fitting celebration ahead of that milestone. We are dealing with increasing demand and a growing customer base, so this is an exciting and significant move for us that will enable us to meet our growing customer demand.

“We have a reputation for providing our customers with the best quality stock and the highest standards of service. Our new facilities give us a solid foundation for our existing model, as well as huge potential to broaden our offer to include rigid vehicles as well as contract hire and fleet management. We have an exciting couple of months ahead of us as we start to see everything come together.”

Established in 1982, Hanbury Riverside is focused on selling high spec tractor units, between one and three years old. In 2018 it was acquired by Asset Alliance Group.

The new site, between Colchester and Ipswich, was placed in part to offer easy access to the A12 and A14 roads, a benefit for customers who buy trucks online and fly in from Ireland, Scotland and various parts of Europe to collect the vehicles.
