    A £12 million order has been received by Manitou from Ardent Hire, a specialist rental provider of telehandlers. It’s the largest investment in the Manitou product range ever made by the firm.

    The order comprises 200 telehandlers, ranging from 6m up to 18m. It follows positive feedback from Ardent Hire’s customer base since first including Manitou products in its fleet.

    “This £12 million deal with Manitou represents a pivotal moment for Ardent Hire,” remarked Leigh Webb, sales director at Ardent Hire. “We are dedicated to offering our customers the most advanced and reliable machinery available, and Manitou telehandlers perfectly align with our mission. This partnership will not only elevate our service standards but also empower our clients to accomplish their projects with greater efficiency and confidence.”

    “We are thrilled to partner with Ardent Hire on this significant order. Their commitment to quality and innovation aligns perfectly with our own values, and we’re excited to see our Manitou telehandlers contribute to their continued success in the industry,” added Peter Smyth, sales director UK & Ireland, Manitou Group.
