Tiger Tracks 2018
Time flies when
you’re having fun!
The past four years have flown by here at Tiger. It doesn’t seem
that long ago since our first trailers rolled off the production
line from our factory in Winsford, Cheshire. Fast forward to 2018
where more than 4,000 Tiger products are now operating across
the UK and mainland Europe.

Having increased our market share throughout 2017, we have
enjoyed significant growth and continue to supply an expanding
and diverse customer base. From own-account operators, to
global logistics, retail and parcel corporations, the Tiger brand
has been firmly established within the market place.

2018 is set to be an exciting year for us with new product
developments and the move into our new, purpose-built factory
at the end of the year. The new facility has been designed for
future growth and in its first stage will give us the ability to
double our existing capacity.

The new factory will provide everyone at Tiger with a superb
working environment, maintaining all manufacturing under
one roof, just as we do today. Plus, it will give us the platform
to continue building on our fresh approach, offering a unique
customer experience and becoming a destination for design
excellence and expertise in our industry.

We would like to thank the whole Tiger Trailers team, as well
as our customers, suppliers and partners, for their continued
support. These are really exciting times for the company and
we look forward to sharing them with you.
