John Taig                   Dealer Principal 

From a very young age John would accompany his father Alf to International Harvester in the City. So at the age of 19 when he started in the service department, he was fairly familiar with what was going on in the business. From the service department, he moved into machinery assembly and delivery and at the age of 21 began his career as a salesman door to door selling.  In the mid 80’s International sold off the machinery division to Case, and then we were truck dealers only, which was more to Johns liking.  In 1987 John purchased the company from his family (Alf, Ron and Norm) and in 1989 he expanded the business purchasing the Albury dealership.  He has seen a lot of changes in his 40 plus years, some good some bad but one thing that hasn’t changed is his love and passion for the transport industry.
