Optare is pleased to announce that trent barton of Nottingham has named Optare as its preferred supplier for the next three years.  The decision means that Optare will supply a total of 65 buses over that period with a contract value of £8.1 million.

The agreement calls for the supply of 39 Tempos, 9 Versas and 17 Solos for delivery over the three years. These will be specifically tailored for trent barton's individual route applications.

Glenn Saint, Optare's Commercial Director, said: "trent barton are market leaders in the British bus operating scene, their innovative approach to vehicle design and passenger environment often leads to new concepts which are mimicked by others. It's no coincidence that is a multi-award winning organisation." 

"For them to demonstrate their faith in Optare and our products for this long-term deal underlines the considerable standing Optare now has in the market", he said.
