Bury St Edmunds based “The Taste of Suffolk” are the latest local company to take delivery of a Lithium Powered BYD ECB16C.

When Roger Simons began the process of replacing his traditional Lead Acid 3 Wheel Forklift, he was unaware of the Lithium options available from BYD.

Roger Said “At the point Rob [of Eastern Forklift Trucks] visited me I had a number of quotations from, as I thought, the leading manufacturers, none of those representatives even mentioned Lithium as an option. When Rob explained the benefits of the BYD I quickly understood the advantages and requested a demonstration to see for benefits for myself, a few days later we had successfully trialled the ECB16C and ordered a new unit bespoke to our requirements. A few weeks on, and I am delighted to say we have taken delivery of our BYD and glad we made the decision to invest in the latest technology available from Eastern Forklift Trucks.”
