Edit

Velocity Truck Centers, a company that focused on supplying and servicing commercial vehicles, completed the acquisition of First Truck Centre, a dealer and servicer of heavy-duty trucks and commercial vehicles. Financial terms were not disclosed. "We are very excited to welcome the First Truck Centre team to what is the most comprehensive commercial vehicle sales, service and support network in North America. It has been a pleasure to work with the Olson family and First Truck executive team through this process. The continuity of the First Truck Centre leadership team will enable us to achieve the best of both worlds – a Canada led team with total focus on the market, supported by the resources, processes and functional teams of the Velocity organization. We want to personally welcome everyone from First Truck Centre to the Velocity organization, and we look forward to meeting customers throughout Western Canada in the coming months," Brad Fauvre and Conan Barker, VTC Co-Presidents.
