Dolofan will thus become one of the largest road carriers in Romania, rivaling big names like Ion Lazar with his International Lazar Company, which has a 700-truck fleet.
Dolo Trans Olimp has contracts signed with Gefco, Arcese, Pirelli, Michelin and LKM Walter and Rhenus. It carries vehicles for Mercedes-Benz from Kecskemet, as well as Dacia cars from Mioveni and Peugeot and Citroen cars for Trust Motors.
“The purchase is based on a projected transport volume discussed with our clients as early as in mid last year. We’re not buying trucks just to stand out from the crowd by the number of trucks,” Cristian Dolofan said.
Dolo Trans Olimp posted 176.3 million lei (EUR38.6 million) revenue last year, up 15% on 2016.
