TRP continues 30th anniversary celebrations at RTX

TRP’s prime stand position (P11, adjacent to the RTX bar area) is featuring its own TRP-liveried DAF CF ‘pace truck’ alongside an extensive selection of products from its massive range of over 100,000 lines. With 30^th anniversary celebrations to the fore in 2024, TRP is underway with a generous, quarterly incentive campaign throughout the year for its growing customer base.

The TRP team at RTX is also delighted to reveal its new barcode scanning software, and will be providing live demonstrations throughout the show. The new scanning function is an extension of the industry leading DAF Webshop platform, allowing 24 /7 parts look-up across the entire TRP and DAF Parts catalogues. The barcode function allows users to scan products from their consignment stock straight into their shopping basket for efficient re-ordering. Links are then put in place to export the order data straight to the customer’s workshop management system, thus delivering further efficiencies.

“We can’t wait to see our customers at RTX,” said DAF and TRP Parts Marketing Manager, David Howes, “This is our first appearance at Stoneleigh with a dedicated stand, and it’s really giving us the chance not only to fully showcase our range of parts, but to demonstrate the strength-in-depth of our network, and the efficacy of our 24/7 on-line capability with parts identification, stock confirmation and ordering via the TRP Webshop.”

Created in 1994, the TRP programme has grown year-on-year to become the market leading all-makes parts offering in the UK and Europe. In the UK and Ireland, TRP parts are available at over 140 DAF Dealer locations nationally, with dedicated TRP Stores at strategic locations in the UK. There also exists three TRP Service+ locations providing dedicated parts and service for operators of all makes vehicles and trailers.
