The new national sales structure for the Daimler Truck brands has taken shape with Keith Andrews Trucks dealerships now trading in Christchurch, Timaru and Dunedin.

The official changeover took place on September 12 to create a New Zealand-wide network for the Mercedes-Benz, Freightliner and Fuso commercial vehicle brands.

Under the previous structure Keith Andrews represented Mercedes-Benz Trucks, Freightliner and FUSO in the North Island, while CablePrice represented the three brands in the South Island.

Keith Andrews Holdings and CablePrice have now reached agreement on the sale and acquisition of selected South Island Daimler Truck dealerships.

Keith Andrews Trucks Limited is now trading at CablePrice’s 29 Waterloo Road, Christchurch trucks dealership together with sites in Timaru and Dunedin. CablePrice’s dealerships in Nelson, Greymouth and Invercargill maintain their Daimler Truck service and parts status.

The established South Island sales team have all joined Keith Andrews, including Andrew Buschl based in Nelson, Wayne Byrnes and Theo Ferreira in Christchurch, Hamish Stonehouse in Timaru, and Tristan Duffell in Dunedin and Invercargill.
