WA Operator Goes Electric

Electric

WA-based transport operator Marley’s Transport has made the jump to alternatively-powered trucks, taking on their first electric vehicle in the form of a Volvo FM.

Delivered by Truck Centre WA, the FM will be integrated in the Marley’s fleet to support their transportation solutions for the agricultural sector. It will help to transport produces and supplies to agriculture businesses.

Owner Frank Marley says the delivery of an electric truck aligns with the company’s current sustainability initiatives and its drive to adopt new and innovative technologies.

“My dad always said ‘if you don’t stay at the front, you will get left behind’, which is a value we have always lived by. For us, this truck signifies our commitment to leading from the front with sustainability and alternative fuels,” he says.

Marley’s is keen to continue exploring opportunities to expand its fleet to keep meeting their sustainability goals.

“Marley’s have a proud history of innovating to find efficiencies across their business and I’m sure their pursuit of sustainable transport solutions and their embrace of emerging technology will serve them well into the future,” says Volvo Trucks Australia VP of Sales and Marketing Tom Chapman.
