ONE of Worcestershire's most famous companies has taken delivery of two new forklift trucks to speed up production.

Malvern-based Morgan Motor Company is using two of Mitsubishi's new counterbalance models, supplied by MSM/DRH, the authorised Mitsubishi dealer for the Hereford and Worcester area.

The delivery is part of a continuing drive for increased efficiency and modernisation at Morgan.

"It has taken a long time to dispel the myth that you have to wait years to get a Morgan," said managing director Charles Morgan. "With improved production practices and equipment you can now have your Morgan hand-built to your own specifications in 12 months."
