Brough-based South Cave Tractors is the first Mercedes-Benz Trucks Unimog dealer in the UK to be awarded official Unimog partner status, a prestigious accolade held by only a handful of dealers worldwide.
The rigorous accreditation process includes an on-site audit to assess showroom and workshop facilities, plus technical and bodybuilding capabilities, and customer service standards. A key factor in South Cave Tractors’ successful application is the sales expertise, aftersales support and specialist bodybuilding services it has acquired during 50 years as a Unimog dealer.
“Unimog is such a diverse product which excels in so many different industries, so being able to provide new and existing customers with solutions for their business needs has always been one of our core objectives,” comments Joe Baines, workshop manager at South Cave Tractors.
“To receive the Unimog partner status from Daimler Truck AG has been an amazing achievement for the whole team, with the successful in-depth review of our in-house systems, engineering processes and quality management system, it really cements our commitment to delivering excellence for our customers.”
The Unimog range encompasses gross weights from 7.5 to 16.5t and is built around two core variants: the UGE implement carrier U219-U535, and UHE extreme off-roader U4023-U5023.
“Unimog partner status is a rare privilege only given to exceptional Mercedes-Benz Trucks dealers globally, so we are extremely proud to see this honour being awarded to a UK dealer for the first time,” says Ross Paterson, head of special trucks, Daimler Truck UK.
“South Cave Tractors has an unrivalled, in-depth knowledge of the Unimog and a passionate and talented team who all deserve credit for working consistently to deliver outstanding results for their customers.”
