Jeff and Yvette Mear are the new owners of Fruehauf, effective 18 August.

They take 100% ownership of the transport company after purchasing the remaining Fruehauf shares from Phil and Karen Watchorn.

Both Phil & Karen depart the company to pursue other personal interests and the company thanks them for all their past contributions and wishes them the very best for their future.

“We purchased the remaining shares in Fruehauf because we believe it is a great company and capable of becoming even a better company,” said new managing director Jeff Mear.

“We have fantastic employees who are highly skilled and experienced, we have excellent and loyal customers who appreciate the quality of our products, and we have great strategic supply partners who want us to be successful by leading a mutually beneficial pathway of further growth.”
