Western Truck Group

What Western Truck Group does

Western Truck Group Pty Ltd (WTG) is an authorized multi-brand truck dealership network headquartered in Toowoomba, Queensland, with operations across Queensland, the Northern Territory, and regional New South Wales. The group operates 8 full-service dealerships and 21 Customer Service Centres, selling and servicing new and used Volvo, Mack, UD, and (in Mackay only) Isuzu trucks. WTG also runs a dedicated Modification Centre in Toowoomba for custom truck builds, supplies genuine OEM parts, and offers telematics, vehicle finance, and after-hours breakdown support across its footprint. The company is privately held and led by Managing Director Craig Black.

The underlying technology stack is dealer-operations and OEM-sourced rather than proprietary. WTG integrates with Volvo Group's CSOL (Volvo Truck Online Services) portal for vehicle ordering, service management, and dealer workflows across all locations. Connected-vehicle capability is delivered through OEM telematics platforms (Mack Telematics, GuardDog Connect, Volvo Connected services) and the dealer offers Volvo's electromobility range (FH/FM/FMX Electric, HVO, hydrogen fuel cell). Financial and supplier-risk workflows use Eftsure (payment verification) and ApplyEasy/CreditorWatch (credit applications).

WTG's revenue model spans one-time new and used truck sales, recurring parts and workshop service revenue, finance referral/arrangement fees, and customization services through the Mod Centre. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with periodic promotional bundles such as 3-year free servicing on the Mack Anthem. GTM is enterprise field sales combined with a regional dealership network, website enquiry system, test drive events, community sponsorships (LifeFlight Australia), and partnerships with Australian Industry Trade College for apprentice hiring. Customer segments include enterprise fleets (Linfox, Banisters Transport), owner-operators, government (Gladstone Regional Council), mining/petroleum (Maxim Explosives, Portsmith Petroleum), and agricultural buyers.
