A fleet of (48 sheet size poster equivalent) trucks that service well over 20 airlines at Heathrow are now available as a new advertising medium. The trucks are the catering high-loading vehicles that provide in-fight meals and refreshments for the airlines and have excellent visibility all over Heathrow Airport, from the Spur Road (M4), the M25 right through to the eye level passenger lounges (loading and offloading meals and refreshments to the planes).

The trucks are hi-loading trucks that extend to 8 meters high, creating maximum visibility to the lounges and from inside the planes themselves.

Kirstie Colledge – Managing Director, Simply Marcomms Limited said: “ We are delighted to be in such a strong position to offer a brand new form of advertising at Heathrow Airport, the trucks are approximately the equivalent of a 48 sheet static outdoor poster site, which are sold on a 2 week basis covering both sides with self adhesive vinyl posters” She went on to say: “This new advertising medium will give companies the opportunity to take either block bookings or support tactical campaigns depending on their requirements. The level of uptake is expected to be high”.
