04 Jan Gray & Adams is Nominated Bodybuilder in DBC Foodservices Specification for Dawson Rentals

DBC Foodservices has recently taken delivery of new Gray & Adams trailers from Dawson Rentals. The new trailers have been ordered to update the fleet as part of the company’s ongoing five year replacement cycle and will be used to service a long-standing Ministry of Defence contract, among others.

As well as the prestigious MOD contract, DBC also services a variety of organisations in the education, healthcare and leisure sectors, fulfils various distribution and catering contracts and are proud suppliers to leading high street groups.

The new trailers are multi-temperature specification, in order to fulfil the ranging needs of the business, including ambient, chilled and frozen. DBC offers full stock holding and a full online ordering facility. On this basis, the DBC fleet is also used for inter-depot trucking, transferring stock between the company’s main warehouses at Thatcham and Rotherham to the other ten regional depots.

The new trailers are on contract hire through Dawson Rentals. Gray & Adams is the nominated bodybuilder that is specified as part of the DBC required specification.
