Watts Trucks, a leading commercial vehicle dealership operating in Gloucestershire, Herefordshire and Worcestershire, Cardiff and Newport is further expanding by acquiring Swansea Truck Centre, the DAF distributor in South West Wales.
The Watts Truck Group recently acquired Cardiff Truck Centre and will now have seven outlets in South Wales, Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, and Worcestershire, consolidating its position as the foremost Truck and Van organisation in the region with sales, service and parts dealerships for DAF, LDV, Fiat and other brands.
John Landon will continue as Managing Director of Swansea Truck Centre together with the current management team.
John Landon said: “This is a unique opportunity to be part of a strong regional group that is dedicated to providing excellent customer service and I am particularly pleased that we are now part of the Watts family with their South Wales transport connections”.
Stewart Charters, Director Watts of Lydney Group explained “I am delighted that we have been able to realise our strategy of extending our regional presence by adding adjoining DAF franchises to our established Gloucester based dealership and at the same time retain the strong management teams that have made these businesses so successful.”
John Thurston, the Group’s Chairman, commented: “I am confident that our customers will benefit from the improved service that this combination will deliver. I am personally pleased that my family’s longstanding and local connection with transport in the South and West of Wales is being maintained through these recent acquisitions.”
