Capricorn plays key role in companies’ success

Heavy duty truck and commercial vehicle repairers need fast access to quality replacement parts ranging from engine, suspension and chassis components to consumables like oil, filters and brakes.

Imagine how much easier it is for Capricorn Members with workshops and transport companies to access all of their parts requirements and have it all billed to the one single invoice each month.

This is the reality for many truck repair specialists and transport companies across Australia and New Zealand, who maximise the time and cost saving benefits of Capricorn Membership within this specialised repair and service sector.

Take Heavylec, auto electrical specialists to the trucking industry, as a prime example.

According to managing director, Philip Bunker, “We have been a Capricorn Member for 11 years and have found that the convenience of using a single trade account and having access to so many Preferred Suppliers has been great.

“Getting a trade price without having to identify yourself and being able to access parts easily are another two big plusses of Capricorn Membership,” Bunker stated.

Scott Quinn, general manager of Quinn Transport, is also very pleased with how Capricorn Membership has worked for his trucking business.

“We put as many parts purchases as we can through Capricorn because of the ease and time saving. Our accounts team appreciates Capricorn because it makes life easy.

“Our Capricorn account allows us to access a great discount for all our needs and we’ve been able to build a great relationship with Capricorn Preferred Suppliers for purchases such as parts, tyres, oil and the other supplies we need to service our fleet of highway trucks and trailers,” Quinn said.

Sean Carren, managing director of Goldstar Transport, believes that joining Capricorn was one of the best business decisions that he has ever made.

“We started this business with one truck 20 years ago and now we have over 430 people employed and over 500 pieces of licensed equipment on the road. Capricorn has been a key part of our success story over the past 20 years,” he said.

“Capricorn provides us with instant access to everything that we need, giving our workshop a distinct
advantage by reducing the number of suppliers that we have to deal with.

“It makes it faster to get our trucks back on the road and it makes things so much easier for all of our team.”

Capricorn’s Commercial Vehicle team is taking care of its Members’ parts and business essentials requirements across many different sectors of the industry including agricultural, auto electrical, bus and coach, transport fleet, mining and construction, towing and recovery, hydraulic service and repair, and commercial workshop.

No matter what sector of the commercial industry your business operates in, Capricorn can help to make your business stronger.
