Ardent buys 25 Hitachi excavators

Ardent Hire has purchased 25 large excavators from Hitachi Construction Machinery (UK), increasing its fleet to more than 1,200.

Dave Roberts, CEO of Hitachi Construction Machinery (UK) Ltd commented, “Ardent and Hitachi CMUK Ltd have enjoyed an excellent relationship for several years now, not least because of great product and aftersales support, but also due to the flexible approach both businesses have. This latest deal illustrates that perfectly, responding to a demand for more kit with relatively short notice. We thank Ardent for the continued business and look forward to the growing partnership in the New Year."

Julian O'Neill, CFO of Ardent said, "As part of our ongoing fleet investment programme, which this year will exceed 1,200 units, we always look for quality, value and a partnership approach. Hitachi (UK) has provided an excellent response throughout 2019, delivering over 60 machines in the second half of the year to meet the growing demand of our customers for robust, reliable excavators."
