Lanark-based haulier JHP Transport has marked a decade in business by expanding its fleet with a pair of eye-catching anniversary edition SOR refrigerated trailers, supplied by Asset Alliance on a five-year hire purchase deal.

The custom-wrapped tri-axle reefers are the first SOR-manufactured imports delivered by Asset Alliance under a new agreement that sees parent company Asset Alliance Group stock the Spanish products at both its Wolverhampton headquarters and Newmains office in Scotland.
Jim Prentice, Managing Director at JHP Transport, says: “It’s an important time for our business as we mark a decade since we started operating. We’ve been really impressed with the SOR trailers and the customer service we’ve had from Asset Alliance; they’ve shown a genuine interest in our business, and ensured we have the right fleet for our needs.”
JHP Transport’s SOR reefers will operate on scheduled, long-distance delivery runs throughout the UK and Europe, and join a fleet that collectively handles more than 300 deliveries per week.
SOR reefers are available on hire purchase or contract hire with Asset Alliance, or for outright purchase via sister company ATE Truck & Trailer Sales. The Spanish-made trailers are also being offered for medium to long-term rental agreements through Asset Alliance Group’s Flexi-Hire division.
Built to a bespoke specification, the tri-axle SOR reefers feature either Thermo King or Carrier Transicold cooling units, and five-layer insulation in their bulkhead walls. The trailers’ robust construction includes lightweight materials to provide the lowest possible unladen weight, ensuring maximum payload.
Established in 2007 by James Hamilton Prentice, JHP Transport has grown into a fleet relied upon and recognised around the country by its distinctive livery, which is emblazoned with both the Union and Saltire flags.
