Introducing Sandown Motors – Commercial Vehicle Division

The Commercial Vehicle Division of Sandown Motor Holdings represents the most recognized truck brands in the world - Mercedes-Benz, Freightliner, Mitsubishi and FUSO. 

At the heart of Sandown Motor Holdings’ evolution, since their establishment in 1982, lies Daimler AG who bought a majority stake in the dealer group in June 2001.  Apart from its highly respected vehicle brands, Daimler AG also brings its technological expertise into the service aspect of the business.

As soon as the competition board ruled in favour of Daimler AG's new network strategy in September 2002, Sandown Motor Holdings acquired certain dealerships in specific geographic areas to bolster their nationwide representation.  This included the Commercial Vehicle dealerships which were previously owned by the McCarthy Group.

The Commercial Vehicle Division is a flexible organization with a deep understanding of the trucking industry, offering customers the full spectrum of products and support services.  These include transport consultancy, parts operations, service operations, body repair centres, fleet services and a fully fledged used commercial vehicle operation.

Sandown’s Commercial Vehicle Division capitalizes on the equity that the Sandown brand conveys, including coverage in Gauteng and Cape Town, uniform standards at all dealerships, an improved ability to service large national fleets and enhanced value and service quality through greater focus on core competencies and dedication to the trucking business.
