MaxiTRANS celebrates record contract with Coles

MaxiTRANS has secured one of the nation’s largest ever contracts of its kind by signing an agreement to supply 395 Maxi-CUBE and Freighter trailers to Coles Supermarkets in New South Wales and Western Australia.
After much speculation in the marketplace, the company made the outcome of the $60 million agreement public on 4 April on the back of a factory visit by the Hon Wade Noonan MP, Minister for Industry and Employment and Minister for Resources, and Coles’ Head of Transport, Tony O’Toole.
MaxiTRANS’ new Managing Director and CEO, Dean Jenkins, used the opportunity to commend Coles on its commitment to local manufacturing. “We are proud that Coles has chosen to partner with MaxiTRANS,” he said. “This is a tremendous show of support by Coles in Australian regional manufacturing.”
 
Coles’ Head of Transport, Tony O’Toole, commented on the importance of MaxiTRANS’ local footprint for the outcome of the contract. “Coles is pleased to be able to support the creation of jobs in regional Victoria through this partnership with MaxiTRANS,” he said.
“We are always looking for ways to strengthen our relationships with local suppliers to help sustain the communities we serve every day, and we’re proud that deliveries to our stores will be made using trailers produced right here in Victoria.”
