Tito Transport is a small Taranaki family-owned company that started in 2015 with owners Shane Tito and Nicola Bourke purchasing an ex-Fonterra Scania.

After attaching a hydro excavator, the company had contracts with civil contractors to lay cabling for fibre for the next three years.

During this period Shane’s love for the open road never left him. It was something he first enjoyed while travelling in the passenger seat with his father Richard in his 318 horsepower V8 single drive Fuso pulling an A-Train for Kiwi Dairies (which later became Fonterra).

Once he started his own driving career and obtained his Class 5, Shane turned his hand to drive all sorts of configurations and loads. But floating doing flat deck work in the North Island has been his passion for the past 30 years.
