This marks the fourth time that Holland &Barrett has chosen Don-Bur for its fleet renewal programme.

Each of the 33 trucks will be linked to a nominated Holland & Barrett staff member, recognising their hard work or special achievements. These dedicated team members will have the option to have their own name or a nominated name, such as that of a family member, proudly displayed on the sides of the truck cab.

The new fleet comprises 31 rigid bodies mounted on the latest generation Scania P280 high roof sleeper cabs, while an additional two are fitted to Mercedes Atego models. These vehicles feature heavy-duty specifications, including colour impregnated GRP panels, reinforced Anchorfix and powder-coated aluminium extrusions. Each vehicle is equipped with a 1,500kg Dhollandia retractable tail-lift, which includes dual controls on both sides at the rear to accommodate high street loading. The livery has also been updated with a new, simplified design to ensure maximum impact and brand visibility on the road.

"We're proud to have Holland & Barrett return to us for their fleet renewal, especially with such a unique and personalised aspect to the project," said Steve Lovett, national account manager at Don-Bur. "The decision to link each vehicle to a specific team member reflects Holland & Barrett's commitment to their staff and adds a special touch to this fleet. Moreover, the seven-year interval since their last fleet renewal is a testament to the durability and quality of the vehicles we provide."
