Parts brand TRP has officially opened yet another store in its growing network, this time expanding to a major regional hub in Victoria.
The Leake Group and Graham Thomson Motors joined with TRP to celebrate the official opening of the TRP Bendigo store on February 6.
Located at 1/18 Rohs Road in East Bendigo, the store is a significant milestone for Central Victoria’s transport industry, providing high-quality, affordable and accessible truck and trailer parts.
The store was first opened to customers late last year, offering a range of parts for prime movers, rigid trucks and heavy trailers covering both genuine and from all major brands as well as the PACCAR exclusive range of TRP branded parts.
“As we now have officially opened the TRP Store, I can see strong growth for our market and for our group and not only that, but it will strengthen our current relationship with our customers and give us a stronger footprint within our area, and we look forward to seeing it grow and bear fruit,” Graham Thomson Motors and TRP Bendigo parts manager Corey Turvey says.
