WTG acquires Southern Truck Centre (STC)

WTG are excited to announce our acquisition of Southern Truck Centre (STC), effective May 2025.

STC operates 2 dealerships in New South Wales – Wollongong and Queanbeyan – and are the primary dealer for Volvo, UD and Mack trucks in both locations. ⁣
⁣
Current owners Steve and Lisa Barlow (pictured with daughter Georgia and WTG’s Guy Hoffensetz) bought the original Queanbeyan business in 2008 and expanded into Wollongong in 2011. They now employ 95 staff who provide professional and personalised service to their customers.⁣
⁣
Bringing STC into the WTG network is a privilege for our group, and will allow us to further strengthen our ability to support our growing customer base in regional areas. ⁣
⁣
⁣We would like to thank Steve and Lisa for their hard work in building such a great business and wish them all the very best in their retirement.⁣
⁣
We look forward to welcoming the STC staff into the WTG family in the new year.
