REFRIGERATED vehicle supplier Petit Forestier has ordered a new fleet of delivery vans with hopes of creating a new sector in the temperature-controlled market.

The group will initially take delivery of 15 Citroen Relays, five Dispatches and six Berlingos, claiming that use of the compact vans could be a first for the refrigerated market. Petit operates a 4,000-strong fleet and the new vehicles will be the group’s first batch of Citroens.
