Bridgestone Wins Thamesdown Bus Fleet Deal

Bridgestone Tyres has gained a contract with Thamesdown Transport, the Swindon-based bus company. Bridgestone will be supplying its range of specialised bus tyres to Thamesdown’s entire fleet. Paul Jenkins, Managing Director of Thamesdown Transport, explained: “We were impressed by Bridgestone’s offering. We chose them over the other bidders due to their cost effective package and their full range of services.” Based in Swindon, Thamesdown Transport runs 110 vehicles and has a modern, purpose built depot with excellent working conditions.

Roger Moulding, Marketing Manager of Commercial Products at Bridgestone UK, commented: “We are pleased at the new contract win with Thamesdown Transport. We believe in offering a long term partnership with our fleet customers rather than just a supply agreement, and more fleets are seeing that this is the way to go for the future.”
