Penske New Zealand is opening the doors to a new state-of-the-art Christchurch facility.
The Penske Christchurch site is located at 2 Headquarters Place, Hornby South, and will officially open on February 4.
To coincide with the opening, local commercial vehicle dealer, Heavy Trucks, is joining the Penske New Zealand family and will relocate to the new site.
The facility will provide full retail sales, parts, and service support for the Western Star Trucks, MAN Truck & Bus, Dennis Eagle, MTU, and Detroit brands.
Penske New Zealand director Jim Livermore says it’s an exciting time for the company and he welcomes Heavy Trucks employees to the team.
“With our new Christchurch facility, we will be able to build on the great reputation that Heavy Trucks has earned on the South Island for exceptional customer service.”
Situated on 11,500 square metres of land, the purpose-built facility comprises 1,860 square metres of workshop space, a 500 square metre parts warehouse, and 900 square meters of office space and amenities.
The workshop houses 18 truck bays, a machine shop, a drive-through wash bay, and two full-length service pits fitted out with the latest servicing equipment.
It provides “exceptional amenities for our staff, our customers, and their assets,” Livermore says.
