Truck Service Simons

What Truck Service Simons does

Truck Service Simons B.V. is a Dutch commercial vehicle aftersales operator headquartered in Echt, Netherlands, founded in 1998 by Denny Simons. The company maintains and repairs trucks, trailers, vans, and industrial equipment across two locations (Echt and Eindhoven), operating as an official Mercedes-Benz aftersales dealer for trucks (since 2015) and vans (since 2020). Its service portfolio spans periodic maintenance, repairs, statutory inspections (APK, tachograph, BMWT, ALK, LPK, STEK), tire and wheel services, loading platform maintenance, refrigeration unit servicing, and 24/7 emergency roadside assistance through the Mercedes-Benz Service 24h network of 1,000+ European service points. The company supports a dedicated 3,000m2 headquarters with 8 work bays, modern diagnostic systems (Texa, Wabco, Haldex, Knorr), and Mercedes-Benz FleetBoard integration for fleet maintenance planning, alongside a 24/7 online Mercedes-Benz WebParts catalog offering 390,000+ original parts.

Revenue is generated primarily through professional service fees (workshop labor, emergency breakdown response, mobile on-site repairs) and Mercedes-Benz parts sales, with pricing structured on quote-based, pay-as-you-go terms. The go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales targeting fleet owners, an online appointment and parts ordering platform, and channel partnerships via the Simons European Truck- & TrailerCare network, trailer manufacturer LeciTrailer, parking operator A2 Truck Parking, and cleaning partner Basiq Truck Cleaning. The company is privately held under the Simons Group holding, with Gomez Noord-Holland B.V. owning a 50% stake since 2015, and operates a broader ecosystem of affiliated subsidiaries including Simons Industrial B.V., A2 Truck Parking, Trailer Sales Nederland, Simons European Truck- & TrailerCare, and Simons European Truck- & TrailerRental.
