The assets include hundreds of late-model Peterbilt and Kenworth highway tractors, dump trucks, and trailers, including dry vans and reefer units, all inspected and with fresh safeties prior to sale.
REGINA — Brandt Peterbilt, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Brandt Group of Companies, has been appointed to disperse a major portion of the fleet assets of a major Mississauga-based truck leasing firm that filed for bankruptcy protection in late March 2024.
The assets include hundreds of late-model Peterbilt and Kenworth highway tractors, dump trucks, and trailers, including dry vans and reefer units, all inspected and with fresh safeties prior to sale.
“We work hard to deliver complete solutions for our customers, and giving them access to used units on this kind of scale, along with options for asset liquidation, is an important step as we continue to invest for the long term in our truck dealership business. The addition of these units will increase our new and used catalogue to nearly 1300 units – the largest in Canada,” said Brandt’s COO of transportation, Neil Marcotte. “This influx of used inventory reflects a core business strategy within our dealership network. It will allow us to grow our used equipment business at an unprecedented rate, better serving our current and future customers while keeping up with the demands of the market.”
Brandt, a provider of new and used trucks in Canada, entered the truck market in fall of 2019 with the acquisition of Camex Equipment in Nisku, Ab. In the winter of 2021, Brandt became the exclusive Peterbilt dealer for Saskatchewan and primary dealer in Ontario with the acquisition of Cervus Equipment. Brandt has 19 full-service locations in Saskatchewan and Ontario.
The equipment is expected to be available for sale this month at Brandt locations in Mississauga, ON; Ayr, ON; Winnipeg, MB; Regina, SK; Saskatoon, SK; Calgary, AB; Edmonton, AB; Vancouver, BC; and Kamloops, BC.
