As part of a strategy to boost its coverage throughout the UK and Ireland, trailer maker and truck bodybuilder Schmitz Cargobull has opened another new Regional Business Centre. This, the second of the firm’s business centres opened in 2009, is on a two-acre site. It includes offices, a parts store and a display area for new and used trailers. “Essentially, the Regional Business Centres operate like owned dealerships,” said Tom Macallan, UK managing director at Schmitz Cargobull. “They perform different but entirely complementary functions to those undertaken by our existing Service Partners, with whom we will continue to develop, train and grow our network.” Schmitz has similar RBCs operate in Warrington and Harelaw, with others due in the South West of England, Scotland and Ireland during 2010.
