RH Commercial Vehicles expands territory with acquisition of new site in Coventry
Alongside their Head Office in Nottingham, opened in December 2022, RHCV now has eight sites strategically located across the Midlands.

The Coventry depot is located in Nuneaton within five minutes of Junction 3 of the M6. The 2.3-acre site features modern workshop facilities, with four drive-through bays.

In 2022, the redevelopment of their Northampton depot commenced and was completed in September 2024which has seen a six-bay workshop and class 7 MOT lane and a dedicated LCV centre built alongside extensive refurbishment to customer and employee amenities and office accommodation; in 2021, the firm opened a new site in Newark and acquired its Peterborough workshop facility to further extend their offering in the East Midlands. In the spring of 2024 RHCVan was launched to extend  main dealer standard service and repair options to all makes van operators.

The Change of management will come into effect on 1st November 2024.

Nigel Baxter, Managing Director of RHCV, comments: “We are delighted to announce this exciting news, and I am looking forward to welcoming all the existing twenty-three employees at Coventry into the RH ‘family’.

This acquisition allows us to extend our offer for quality service and values, extending our coverage into the West Midlands. This change makes us one of the leading independent distributors in the Renault Trucks Network. I am immensely proud of our development since 2012 and the growth we have achieved in that time. The addition of the Coventry facility alongside new colleagues will further complement our skilled, loyal, and dedicated team, whose efforts continue to drive the business forward.”
