Daimler Brings Australian Dealer Principals to Peach State Truck Centers Forest Park for Elite Support Dealer Visit

On Thursday, March 15, Daimler Trucks executives brought a group of dealer principals from Australia to the Peach State Truck Centers location in Forest Park, Georgia for a presentation on Elite Support, as well as a tour of the facilities there.

“These dealer principals from overseas haven’t been introduced to the Elite Support certification program yet, and it was great getting to open their eyes to the benefits this program can do for a dealership or dealer family,” said Rick Reynolds, Peach State Truck Centers President and Dealer Principal. “We were able to show the group what our Forest Park location looked like before Elite Support changed the way we did business, and it’s night and day. We love getting to show off what this program has done for our culture here at Peach State.”

In addition to the Australian dealer principals, members of the Daimler Truck and Bus Australia were in attendance of the meeting. Daniel Whitehead, President and CEO of Daimler Truck and Bus Australia; Justin Whitford, Director of Sales FUSO, Michael May, Director of Sales Mercedes-Benz; Stephen Downs, Director of Sales Freightliner; Gregory Lovrich, Director of Parts and Service; Stacey Davies, Program and Activation Lead.

“Our visit to the Peach State Freightliner dealership during the Australian and New Zealand Elite Support study tour was extremely informative and educational,” said Davies. “Our dealers network left feeling optimistic and excited about the future of Elite Support in Australia. They were able to see first-hand the benefit of implementing Elite Support and were inspired by the work of the Peach State team.”
