Truck dealer set to accelerate growth with new 20,000 sq ft site
Independent Renault Trucks distributor RH Commercial (RHCV) has opened a fifth site, in North Nottinghamshire.
The new site on the A1, near Tuxford, joins four other outlets in Nottingham, Alfreton, Leicester and Northampton.
The 20,000 ft site will be operational in late April.
Nigel Baxter, managing director at RHCV, said: “Despite the continuing challenges on our health, our health services and the economy we’re delighted to share this good news.
“The opening of this new site will allow us to better service our existing customer base in the Newark area, as well as enabling us to extend our support north towards Ollerton, Retford and Worksop. These are parts of North Nottinghamshire where we have been unhappy with our coverage in the past, this new facility will allow us to give a first-class service to existing Renault Trucks operators, and of course open up opportunities for new business in this area.”
“We have been looking for an appropriate site in this area for the past few years. Now that we have a suitable location, we now have fantastic network coverage, strategically located along the M1 corridor, with Cossington also covering the A46 trunk road close to Leicester, and now this new site covering the A1, and of course also the A46.”
Eight new roles will be created initially, says the firm, with more over time.
Chris Turner, who currently manages RHCV’s warranty and contracts processes, will be promoted to dealer point manager to manage the new Newark dealership.
