Convoy for the Cure

Lockhart Truck Center was proud to sponsor and be a participant in the 2010 Atlantic Convoy for the Cure.

 

The event was held on October 9, 2010 with the goal of raising $100,000 for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation.  Organizers hoped to have 100 trucks participate in a convoy between Salisbury and Aulac, New Brunswick.

Our truck was driven by Sheila Willams, who is a full time driver for a local construction company.  She got us involved with the cause and we thank her for all her efforts.

Peter Macgillivray and Dave Lockhart become Co-Owners
The Road of Life has Many Turns.

 

Little did Peter know that someday he would become a partner in a business he helped to become a franchised OEM dealer. Stationed in Nova Scotia in 1991, Peter worked with the founding owners of Provincial Diesel Repair allowing them to become a full line Kenworth dealer. Prior to becoming a dealer, the business had been operated a diesel repair shop, specializing in engine overhauls.

Provincial Diesel was purchased by David Lockhart in 1997, which had by then represented Western Star trucks. In 2000, David had the opportunity to purchase Evangeline Sterling and re-branded his dealership Lockhart Sterling Western Star.

Dave armed with an excellent staff and strong commitment to customer service was able to more that double the size of the original business. With 36 employees and expected revenues of over $20M in 2007, Dave had grown the business larger than one man could handle and went to market in search of a partner for his business.
