General freight carrier, SRV Roadfreight Services has announced the acquisition of BEVTRANS.
SRV is looking to integrate the beverage and food transporter and finalise its new look organisational structure within the next 90 days.
The integration effort will be driven by management and operational staff.
“This is an important day for the SRV Group as we can take our Safety, Reliability and Value to the next level along the eastern seaboard,” the company said in a statement.
“SRV recognised the strategic fit between our organisations and the significant value this will create for both parties.”
Company leaders and drivers, according to SRV, will be visiting operational sites and DTCs in order to facilitate a smooth integration.
The agreement will involve new Kenworths and Vawdrey trailers featuring the new BEVTRANS logo.
SRV currently operates over 80 Kenworth prime movers.
Major accounts include Coca Cola.
The Yatala-based company anticipates the acquisition will deliver increased employment opportunities within the group.
“I strongly believe offering our innovative solutions and integrating our resources and expertise will enhance our market position and provide substantial benefits to our customers,” said SRV Owner Errol Cosgrove.
SRV appointed former award-winning Driver Trainer & Operations assistant Ben Sparrow to a new General Manager last year.
