Caledonian Truck & Van picked up three prizes at the latest Mercedes-Benz Truck Dealer of the Year Awards.

The manufacturer’s most northerly franchisee retained the Truck Customer Service & Parts Dealer of the Year title which it won in 2016, while also winning the Mercedes-Benz Financial Services Truck Team of the Year award. There was an individual Gold Award too, for Head of Truck Sales Andrew Rennie.

Caledonian also made the final three in the main Truck Dealer of the Year category, which it won last year - as well as in those for Service Manager, Truck Sales Manager, and Truck Administration Team of the Year.

“Winning these awards and nominations for a second year running is testament to the sustained hard work and investment we are applying to our dealerships across Scotland.

“We have put huge energy into improving our facilities, while also recruiting and training staff of the highest calibre. This has been matched by the determination of our employees to deliver the finest levels of customer service,” said Colin Birnie, head of aftersales.

The franchise was taken up by parent company TOM Group in 2012. Having previously traded as Mercedes-Benz Commercial Vehicles, the Dealer underwent a recent rebrand when it adopted its new name.
