Transolutions Truck Centres Ltd. is now the official Thomas Built Buses dealer in the Canadian province of Manitoba.
Also known as Freightliner Manitoba, Transolutions Truck Centres has locations in Brandon, Winnipeg, and Winnipeg East, and will soon open a new location in Steinbach, according to a news release from Daimler Trucks North America, Thomas Built Buses' parent company.
“Transolutions Truck Centres is new to school districts in Manitoba, but they have actually been part of the Daimler Trucks North America family for nearly two decades,” said Caley Edgerly, president and CEO of Thomas Built Buses. “They understand the unique needs of customers in Manitoba and have built an outstanding dealership to meet those needs every step of the way. We are thrilled that they are now part of the Thomas Built Buses dealer network.”
“Our team at Transolutions is truly excited about expanding our partnership with Daimler Trucks North America,” said Itamar Levine, vice president and general manager at Transolutions Truck Centres’ group of companies. “Becoming a Thomas Built Buses dealer will provide us with the tools, the support, and the motivation to significantly grow Thomas Built’s market share in Western Canada.”
For the past 29 years, Transolutions Truck Centres has been one of the largest-volume commercial vehicle dealerships in central Canada. The company recently moved to a brand new 85,000-square-foot location, according to Levine.
