The Jones family have been involved in the haulage industry since 1923, originally transporting mainly coal from the Forest of Dean coal fields and later steel from South Wales to nationwide destinations. At the introduction of articulation in 1959, the family commenced manufacturing trailers for their own use. Following the demand for trailers from local hauliers it became obvious there was a gap in the market. In 1972 Rothdean Limited was established by the current directors and brothers namely John and Lionel Jones. The brothers designed and produced the first step frame monocoque tipping trailers in the UK, which was rapidly copied by competitors. Rothdean Limited have continued and expanded the manufacturing business alongside the used heavy commercial vehicles sales.
