Our media profile has made interesting reading with a number of publications featuring recent reports on our firm: October the 13th's Sunday Times business section, featured a progress report on John Mitchell's strategy and progress, with analysis from a number of corporate experts. The article was positive and complimentary to the way our business has moved forward since August 1998, when this well-known Sunday broadsheet carried a full-page initial report on our company.

Interest in our new vehicles continues to make the headlines, with November's industry magazines 'Trucking' and 'Transport News' both carrying colour pictures and accompanying text on the recent Mercedes and MAN additions to the Mitchell fleet.

January's Truck and Driver also featured a letter, written by a driver employed by another haulage contractor with a large depot in our town, congratulating us on winning our recent award. The writer noted our distinctive livery, modern fleet and cleanliness of vehicles. It is always pleasing for us when people take the time to compliment us on the turnout of our trucks.
