Each year, DAF recognizes its best performing dealers with an award. While some receive an award for outstanding customer satisfaction, others are acknowledged for outperforming on growth, general business performance or the sales of new or used trucks, financial services or parts. The dealer that stands out in all fields is named ‘International Dealer of the Year’. 

‘Best possible partner for customers’ 

“Only a dealer that sets new benchmarks in customer experience on the one hand and has a constant drive to grow its business by investing in premises and training on the other, deserves the title 'DAF International Dealer of the Year',” said DAF Trucks president Harry Wolters at the online prize-giving ceremony. “Group Lefevre is determined to be the best possible partner for its customers in every field: Heavy and Medium Duty trucks, PACCAR Parts, PACCAR Financial, DAF MultiSupport, you name it. This dealer – with multiple locations in the north-west of France – is the Top Performer in customer satisfaction with excellent sales advice, long opening hours and highly-skilled and well-trained people. Combined with their ‘First Time Right’ results in the workshop, this is what sets them apart, from the perspective of their customers.” 

PACCAR Financial, PACCAR Parts, Used Trucks and DAF MultiSupport Awards 

Best performing dealers in the fields of financial services, parts supply, used truck sales  and repair and maintenance contracts are also acknowledged at the annual DAF International Dealer Meeting.  

Gerrit-Jan Bas, Managing Director of PACCAR Financial Europe, shone the spotlight on France Poids Lourds for exceeding their used trucks sales targets and on Wilhelm Fricke in Germany for their excellence in offering the best financial services support to its customers. Van Tilburg-Bastianen Groep (the Netherlands and Poland) was praised by Dick Leek, General Manager of PACCAR Parts Europe, for their performance for the exceptional availability of parts, resulting into maximum uptime for their customers. EBB in Germany was honored with the DAF MultiSupport Award for outstanding performances in the area of repair & maintenance contracts.
