What cmv truck centre does

CMV Truck Centre is a privately held, authorised Kenworth and DAF truck dealership operating as a subsidiary of the fourth-generation, family-owned CMV Group (founded 1934, headquartered in South Australia). The company traces its dealership origins to the 1968 acquisition of Peter's Diesel at Gepps Cross and is now the second longest-serving Kenworth dealer in Australia, with 75+ years of brand experience. Operations centre on a purpose-built 12-acre facility in Cavan, South Australia, supported by satellite parts and service locations in Burton and Port Lincoln, plus associated Victorian dealerships (Hallam and Melbourne North) acquired in 2012, bringing the network to nine locations across SA and Victoria.

The business sells new Kenworth (K220, T320, T420, T620, T659, T909, C509) and DAF (LF, CF, XF, XG/XG+) trucks, used trucks, genuine PACCAR Parts and accessories, and runs twelve 28-metre drive-through service bays with full-length B-Double pits and brake roller testing equipment. Recurring-revenue streams include contract maintenance, PacLease full-service leasing and short/long-term rental (premium late-model fleet including DAF XG, Kenworth K220, K200, T610SAR, Legend W900 SAR), and PACCAR Financial financing (Hire Purchase, Chattel Mortgage, Operating Leases). Technology adoption is OEM-led via PACCAR Connect telematics and Fusion Active Safety Suite, with an eBay storefront for parts and merchandise extending the digital channel.

CMV Truck Centre makes money through a multi-stream revenue model: one-time vehicle transactions (new and used truck sales), workshop service labour and diagnostics, parts sales via TRP Adelaide/TRP Eyre Peninsula retail outlets and eBay, recurring subscription-style leasing and contract maintenance through PacLease, and finance referral income via PACCAR Financial. Customers span transport and logistics operators, heavy-haulage and road-train fleets, mining and construction companies, and specialised commercial operators (livestock, refrigerated, tipper). Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales from dealership locations, supported by a website with finance calculator and online enquiry forms, social media (Facebook), and industry events such as the Eyre Peninsula Field Days. Pricing is quote-based for new trucks; used trucks range from approximately $3,000 to $380,000.
