The major objective of the truck supply industry at the present time is focused on the provision of a satisfactory level of support infrastructure to ensure that the vehicles required by operators can be processed for delivery in the shortest possible time, and are then also fully supported in terms of parts, service and repairs once they have entered service.Frans Cloete
Ever since the turn of the Millennium, we have experienced consistent, and sometimes spectacular growth across our market. Even the difficult period experienced with the foreign exchange value of the Rand in the second half of 2001, with its push-on affect in the interest rate arena, did not reverse the trend, and now that we have experienced more than three years of currency robustness, price stability and a positive financing scenario, the results can speak for themselves.

If a substantial proportion of the 80 000 Taxi Recap vehicles due for delivery over the next five years is to be reported in the MCV segment, we could be in for even more spectacular growth in the overall over-3 500 kg GVM market.

While the MCV return equals the second-best ever monthly result for this segment achieved in May 2005, it was only 40 units below the outright record of 1 216 units set in June, and sustains the tremendous growth spurt being exhibited by this vehicle classification. In their own right, the HCV and EHCV segment results both set new records for these categories since NAAMSA redefined its truck market segmentation parameters at the beginning of 2004.
