New truck centre opens in Pakenham

There is nothing more common in Pakenham than the sound of trucks, so it is fitting that Isuzus will now be sold and serviced directly in town.

South East dealership chain Patterson Cheney Trucks recently celebrated the opening of their new site on the corner of McGregor Road and Southeast Boulevard.

The opening was joined by opposition leader Brad Battin and Cardinia Mayor Jack Kowarzik.

The chain provides Isuzu trucks through the South East, the Pakenham site will compliment there existing dealership in Keysborough as a sales, service and parts facility.

“The population of Cardina Shire has seen significant growth and we believe Pakenham will become a business hub for the greater south-east,“ General Manager John Elliot said.

“Patterson Cheney Trucks is looking forward to helping support all the local businesses and become a one-stop-shop for all your truck needs.“

Battin and Kowarzik were reported to have echoed similar sentiments about the prospects of local jobs.

The site covers an area of 12,143 square meters, featuring a spacious workshop equipped with 12 truck bays, 26-meter service pits—one fitted with play detector shaker plates—an inground roller brake tester, and a full-length overhead gantry crane.
