Devon-based van converter Trucksmith has been shortlisted for the coveted What Van? Converter of the Year 2018 award, as part of the magazine’s annual reader awards.

The What Van? Converter of the Year award is in its fourth year and recognises the very best converters in the industry. Trucksmith, which has pioneered the low-loading Luton van, won the award last year.

Simon Partridge, Executive Brand and Sales Manager at Trucksmith said, “This is a high-profile award that is voted for by the public, and having won it last year we’re incredibly keen to repeat the feat. We have continued to focus on innovation and quality, investing in equipment and a quality local workforce to ensure that we provide our customers with the highest standard of van conversions. We know the competition will be tough to beat in this highly competitive sector of the transport industry.”

The winner will be announced at an awards ceremony in December.

Trucksmith is an approved body builder for leading van marques including Renault, Vauxhall and Fiat. It currently has a 64,000sq ft production facility in Uffculme and is celebrating over 30 years of van conversions.
