Snorkel hits the road

Mark Yarnold, UK key account sales manager for Snorkel has set off on a 2,000 mile demonstration tour across the UK.

The two-week tour of the island with a 38-tonne rig will stop at major towns and cities in England, Scotland and Wales. On the low loader are the new Snorkel S1930E electric scissor lift and the S2770BE Bi-Energy compact rough terrain scissor, the ultra-compact TM12, the A38E (AB38) articulated boom lift and the last UpRight Speed Level in UpRight livery.

Yarnold, who boasts a full HGV licence, started his journey in Northumberland on Monday before heading for Glasgow. The road show then travels through Scotland and England, finishing in Cardiff on Friday, October 1st.

Snorkel says that there are still some gaps in the schedule if you want the truck to stop off and see you. Call the customer services group to enquire.

Yarnold said: “I’m really excited and enthused to be introducing the new Snorkel brand in the UK. It’s not just a switch from blue paint to orange – there is a new strength in both our product line and the support behind it.”

“This is very much a people business. I believe that the best way to demonstrate our new strength is to do it the old-fashioned way - get out there, meet those people and let them judge the machines for themselves.”
