RHCV, a Renault Trucks dealer in the East Midlands, has acquired the Renault Truck Commercials dealership in Coventry, further expanding its regional footprint. The financial details of the acquisition remain undisclosed.
The Nottingham-headquartered RHCV now operates eight locations across the Midlands. The Coventry site, which covers 2.3 acres and includes four drive-through workshop bays, will transition to RHCV management from November 1, 2024. All 23 employees from the Coventry depot will join RHCV’s workforce.
The Coventry facility offers a range of services including truck and LCV maintenance, 24/7 breakdown assistance, a Used Trucks centre, and a Tachograph Centre.
This acquisition follows RHCV’s recent developments, including a purpose-built workshop in Nottingham (2019), the expansion of its Northampton depot (completed in September 2024), and the launch of RHCVan in spring 2024 to provide van services.
Nigel Baxter, RHCV’s managing director, expressed his enthusiasm for the acquisition, stating that it strengthens the company’s position as a leading independent distributor within the Renault Trucks Network. He welcomed the Coventry team into the RHCV family, emphasising the continued growth and success of the business since 2012.
