Bloem is DAF country

Seven months is all it’s taken Central Commercial Truck (CCT) in Estoire, Bloemfontein, to earn its place as one of Babcock’s top-performing South African DAF dealerships.

CCT, headed up by Bertus Kritzinger, offers a full spectrum of DAF services including truck sales, service and repairs and financing.

A full spares stockholding and parts distribution centre are on site, while the workshop manager and mechanics are on 24-hour standby for parts supply and breakdowns throughout the Free State and Northern Cape provinces.

Further, sister company to CCT, Trailord SA, provides customers with state-of-the-art trailers that are said to achieve a payload of up to three tonnes more than competitors’ products.

Another subsidiary, Trailfin, assists CCT sales personnel to obtain finance, while a dedicated financial team also provides clients with cash-flow projections and cost-saving methods to achieve higher profit margins.

“We want to grow with our local transport companies and establish DAF as a well-proven and reliable brand in South Africa,” Kritzinger says. “It’s not difficult to get our customers excited about DAF trucks – they are built to be strong, reliable and fuel efficient and drivers love the cab comfort and volume, which enhances the whole driving experience.”
