Scania promotes Dal Santo to sales director

Seasoned executive eyes more New Truck Generation prime movers and rigids

 

Scania Australia stalwart Dean Dal Santo has been promoted to the position of sales director, trucks at Scania Australia.

Dal Santo is responsible for sales of on and off-highway Scania trucks, including the burgeoning mining and resources business Scania has nurtured during the past seven years in Australia, as well as national fleet, fire and specialised vehicles.

Dal Santo was previously national sales manager, trucks for Scania.

He has worked for Scania for 17 years, and has run Scania Australia’s pre-sales department in that time.

“I am very excited to accept this new role at this time, as supplies of the very well-received New Truck Generation Scania prime movers and rigids begin to arrive in big numbers in Australia,” Dal Santo says.

“Thanks to our side rollover curtain airbags, these are the safest trucks you can buy in Australia.

“Through this year we have orchestrated a well-planned run down of stocks of the P,G, R range in anticipation of the ramp up of the NTG range, and initial deliveries of these are now reaching customers.”

Dal Santo adds that he is looking forward to working closely with MD Mikael Jansson to continue to grow Scania truck sales in Australia.

“Our aim this year is to equal last year’s record delivery result, even though we have been in run-out through much of the year, while the plan for 2019 is obviously to make a significant impact in the market with the full strength of the all new truck range at our disposal,” he says.
