Ferrara Fire Apparatus, Inc. Deliver Seven Inferno Pumpers to Jackson, MS.

JACKSON, MS - Ferrara's INFERNO custom fire chassis is a hit in the City of Jackson, Mississippi. Seven (7) new custom pumpers featuring Ferrara's state of the art INFERNO were recently delivered. Ferrara, a leading fire truck manufacturer which produces a broad line of custom built pumpers, tankers, aerial units, and heavy rescue vehicles, set the standard for the future of emergency vehicles by introducing this exciting new design which redefines apparatus safety, ergonomics and maintenance.

This purchase represents the largest single investment in fire safety in the City of Jackson's history. The City purchased seven 1, 500 gallon-per-minute pumpers and a mobile air supply unit, from Ferrara. Fire Chief Raymond McNulty of the Jackson Fire Department stated that "this equipment will be placed at the busiest of the city's twenty-two (22) fire stations".
