247GT Supplies First New ATA Diesel Tow Tractor to SPS UK

Back in April 247GT Ltd were very pleased to hand over our first new ATA diesel tow tractor to Andy Redmond at S.P.S UK. The 50-tonne rated diesel tow tractor is ideal for large cargo applications and meets latest emission standards with its robust drivetrain. With us having more units inbound, it was no wonder our CEO, Brian, was so happy handing it over to Andy in the picture below!

Having been a major player in the airport market for over 60 years after being founded in Moderna, Italy following the end of World War Two by Ageo Bergamini, ATA is the first-choice supplier for many international, as well as Italian, airports today.
