Leyland team is PACCAR's best

A team based in Leyland has been named the best performer in the PACCAR Parts global network.

PACCAR Parts operates from two facilities alongside Leyland Trucks, with both companies part of PACCAR.

During the last 12 months, PACCAR Parts in Leyland expanded its market with a 10 per cent increase in UK and EU sales, achieved excellent safety standards, improved efficiency and performance, and expanded its processing capacity.

This saw the team follow up its silver medal in 2021 with a gold medal for 2022's record-setting performance. 

PACCAR operates 18 distribution centres across the world, specialising in the distribution, sales and marketing of aftermarket parts for heavy- and medium-duty trucks, trailers, buses and engines.

The gold medal award celebrates safety, quality, delivery and cost, and the Leyland team came out on top in each of those four categories.

Shane Christie, UK distribution centre manager at PACCAR Parts, said: "It is remarkable to win two medals back-to-back and have two consecutive record years. We are immensely proud of the team here in Leyland and the effort they put in day in, day out to deliver amazing results."
