In 1996 when Mr.Raine left his position at a Scania dealer to set up his own business buying and selling used vehicles as an independent. Very quickly he was introduced to Isuzu Truck and decided that this was the way forward and after several meetings Isuzu Truck became part of the portfolio. At this time the company was trading as Lesro commercial sales, and Mr. Raine thought a more professional name was required and considering the industry came up with “professional truck services” ie professional in what we do, truck needs to be broader to in corporate all commercial businesses, we offer a service. Thinking more laterally and the possibility of further expansion named the business Pro-Truck Commercial Services Limited. Premises was the next issue as Mr.Raine was working out of a friends yard in Harrogate ( E Houseman and son whom Mr. Raine has the utmost gratitude and respect for) So opened workshops in Darlington. Over the next 3 years the company moved premises as it grew very quickly and out grew the premises they were in , until the present site was found in Banks Road which is now owned freehold by the company. Pro-truck adopted the customer care philosophy of Isuzu and have worked very hard to keep up with the rapid growth retaining a very strong customer base and putting customer care at the forefront of all business. The whole company adopts this policy. The strength of the company has attracted several other franchises looking to do business with Pro-truck but have not had the passion/support that the company looks for to carry out their business with confidence. In 2003 Pro-truck took on BMC truck and bus and having endured initial set up is now looking to a long and fruitfull working relationship in promoting the Product. The two main brands Isuzu Truck and BMC truck and bus have an exciting
range of vehicles as you can see within this web site and Pro-truck
are looking forward to steady consolidated growth giving the customers
exactly what they want, better profit margins. |
