Fruehauf has reinforced its commitment to staff development with a practical training session delivered by Business Development Manager, Karl Spooner as part of the company’s wider focus on equipping its growing team with the tools they need to succeed.
The in-depth session was aimed at new starters who have joined Fruehauf in recent months, offering a comprehensive introduction to the company’s product range, sales approach and trailer technology. With decades of experience in the sector, Spooner was the ideal mentor to lead the session, guiding attendees through the design, function and commercial positioning of Fruehauf’s market-leading trailers.
Held on-site at Fruehauf’s Grantham facility, the session provided valuable hands-on experience, allowing participants to explore the company’s full trailer line-up in person. Spooner also shared his own in-house reference guide, a detailed handbook of technical insights, product features and customer advice, providing staff with a practical resource to support their development long after the session.
The initiative is part of a broader programme of internal training, aimed at supporting both seasoned professionals and those entering the trailer industry for the first time. Fruehauf recognises that practical knowledge and confidence are essential to delivering the high level of service its customers expect, and is committed to building that capability from day one.
Alongside technical training, the business continues to champion fresh talent across its workforce, offering structured entry-level opportunities and mentoring for young people beginning their careers. It’s all part of Fruehauf’s long-term strategy to build a skilled, sustainable team that can help drive the business and the industry forward.
