en.Wedoany.com Reported - New Zealand national freight company Mainstream has taken delivery of 12 new Scania trucks as part of a major fleet expansion and replacement program that will add more than 30 new long-haul vehicles to its operations.
This investment expands Mainstream's owned fleet, following the addition of 18 new Scania R660 models last year. The fleet upgrade is part of the logistics provider's focus on productivity, network growth, and operational flexibility.

The new trucks are paired with high-capacity trailers manufactured by Fruehauf, continuing a partnership of more than 20 years between the two companies. According to Mainstream and Fruehauf, the latest trailer designs maximize available cubic capacity and are believed to offer one of the highest freight volumes currently available on the market.
Cameron Haliday, Mainstream's National Network Manager, said the investment reflects the company's confidence in its future direction. "These new trucks represent our commitment to the future," he said. "As a business, Mainstream wants to build a network based on the need for maximum achievable productivity and flexibility. We are confident in our direction, and the delivery of these company-owned vehicles is a reflection of that confidence."
The Scania fleet is supported by the manufacturer's Scania Assurance repair and maintenance program, along with fleet management tools, driver support applications, and driver training services.
Jeff Mear, Managing Director of Fruehauf, said the latest delivery builds on the long-standing relationship between the two companies. "We have a long-term relationship with Mainstream spanning more than 20 years," he said. "We worked with the Scania and Mainstream teams to deliver these new trucks, which are not only built to our highest standards but also offer the highest cubic capacity on the market."
Victor Carvalho, Managing Director of Scania New Zealand, said the project highlights the value of collaboration between suppliers and operators. "We value our long-term relationships with customers. This delivery represents collaboration and the need to solve problems and overcome challenges together, delivering the best solution for Mainstream," he said.
Mainstream also continues its long-standing tradition of having female employees name each truck, a practice the company says reflects its inclusive culture and strong team identity.
