Volvo FL7 260 Trucks Successfully Delivered to Nigeria – Export Case Study

Britannia Export Consultants Ltd is pleased to confirm the successful sale, shipment, and delivery of two Volvo FL7 trucks to Nigeria, safely arriving at the customer’s yard exactly as planned.

This export involved a Volvo FL7 260 6x2 26‑ton chassis cab transporting a Volvo FL7 260 4x2 19‑ton 3‑way tipper, demonstrating an efficient and cost‑effective logistics solution for African export markets.

🚛 Vehicles Supplied – Volvo FL7 260

• Axles / Tyres: 8 tyres
• Gross Vehicle Weight: 26 ton
• Body: Chassis cab

📦 Smart Export Logistics – Truck on Truck Transport

To optimise costs and efficiency, the Volvo FL7 6x2 chassis cab was loaded with the FL7 4x2 tipper, a common and proven method for exporting multiple vehicles together.

Benefits of this solution include:

• Faster delivery timelines
• Lower total landed cost for the customer

This approach is ideal for African buyers importing multiple trucks from Europe.
