Fleet Services Truck & Trailer Parts

What Fleet Services Truck & Trailer Parts does

Fleet Services Truck & Trailer Parts is a family-owned motor factor based in Sheffield, United Kingdom, supplying aftermarket commercial truck and trailer parts. Founded by Ade Kentzer, the business has traded for over 30 years and currently involves second-generation family members John and James Kentzer in operations. The company serves primarily the South Yorkshire region including Sheffield, Rotherham, and Barnsley, supplying aftermarket parts for major commercial vehicle brands including DAF, Volvo, Scania, Renault, Iveco, and MAN. There is no disclosed proprietary technology platform; operations follow a traditional motor factor distribution model.

The product offering encompasses aftermarket commercial truck parts (braking, steering, suspension, engine components, turbochargers, clutches, air springs) and trailer parts, sourced from eight identified suppliers including 3G Truck & Trailer Parts, Universal Components UK, Sampa Parts, Bremsen Technik, Winnard International, Setco, EBS European Brake, and SCM Turbo UK. Distribution occurs through three channels: a physical trade counter at the Sheffield headquarters (Unit 17 Newhall Road Industrial Estate), a web shop at fsttp.co.uk, and same-day or next-day courier delivery. All products carry a 12-month warranty and prices are quoted excluding VAT.

Fleet Services operates a transaction-based revenue model with one-time product sales. Trade accounts receive 30-day payment terms with 8% per annum interest charged on late payments above the Bank of England base rate, and deposits may be required at company discretion. Customer segments include commercial vehicle operators (fleets, owner-drivers), trade accounts (garages, mechanics), and retail customers. The company uses its website, email newsletter, and word-of-mouth within the trade community for customer acquisition, and offers WhatsApp-based part identification using vehicle registration and images as a value-added service. Headcount is stated at 1-10 employees with trade counter staff combining for over 40 years of commercial vehicle experience.
