Canada’s largest truck equipment supplier selected by the North American leader in specialty tracked vehicles as the exclusive distributor of UTV tracked Digger Derricks and Aerial Devices for Canada.

DELTA, BC – Jan 31, 2023 – The Commercial Group of Companies, comprising Commercial Truck Equipment, Commercial Utility Equipment, and Commercial Emergency Equipment, announced today that they have signed an agreement with Quebec-based UTV International which appoints The Commercial Group the exclusive dealer for UTV Digger Derricks and Aerial Devices for all Canadian Provinces and Territories.

“As Canada’s largest and most prolific dealer/manufacturer of truck-based utility equipment, our partnership with UTV International is a very important expansion of our offerings as a dealer. With over half a million kilometers of distribution lines across Canada’s three power grids, and countless poles, lines, and distribution components not easily reachable by wheeled trucks, the need for capable and reliable tracked utility equipment can’t be understated.”  Said Steve Chapman, Director of Operations for Commercial Utility Equipment.

Effective immediately, Commercial will be the primary sales, service, support, and delivery partner for the complete UTV tracked utility vehicle line throughout Canada. Commercial has completed its first sale (an Achiever RT-02 Digger Derrick) and Commercial staff are currently undergoing UTV product familiarization and training to ensure capability to deliver and perform in-service training to the end-user.

“Commercial has proven their leadership time and again,” offered Tavis Renglich, Sales Manager for UTV International. “For over seventy-five years, they’ve established themselves as Canada’s source for heavy equipment sales, rentals and service – and their reputation precedes itself,” he continued. “Having them in our dealer network is a tremendous opportunity to revolutionize how rural linework gets done here in Canada.”

The full catalog of UTV International Achiever tracked utility vehicles as well as the Kodiak K10DD Combo are now available for sale from Commercial. Commercial is making available both an Achiever RT-02 DD Digger Derrick and Achiever DPM-52 Aerial Device for sales demonstrations across Canada, and customer evaluation engagements for these vehicles are available for qualified customers immediately. Contact Commercial Utility Equipment or visit ComUtility.ca for product information or to schedule a product demonstration.
