MAN Truck & Bus UK has appointed NRG Riverside as its new franchised service partner for South Wales.

The deal follows the firm’s recent acquisition of Commercial Motors (Wales), a long-term franchised service partner of MAN, based in at the Newport Business Centre in Corporation Road, Newport.

NRG Riverside is one of the UK’s largest specialist fleet management companies, supplying many of the nation’s most complex fleets with the latest vehicles, supported by maintenance and a UK-based in-house team available 24/7.

The acquisition reinforces the firm’s long-term strategy of investing in high-quality businesses that strengthen regional coverage, technical capability, and customer experience.

Commercial Motors (Wales) was previously run by a team that included Gill and Roger Sheddick, as well as Mary and Robert Manchip.

In 2013 the company moved to its current purpose-built facility close to the Newport outer ring road.

There is a dedicated parts and service team at the site, supported by a team of highly skilled technicians, who work on all types of vehicles including trucks, trailers coaches and vans.

The facility includes an MoT lane which offers all types of testing.

This strategic acquisition marks NRG Riverside’s first presence in Wales and is an important milestone in the group’s growth strategy.

John Matthews, transformation director at NRG Riverside, said: “Commercial Motors is a highly respected MAN Truck & Bus franchised service partner with a long-standing reputation for delivering quality, reliability, and outstanding customer service.

“The business brings strong technical expertise, deep local knowledge, and a highly skilled team – all of which align closely with NRG Riverside’s commitment to operational excellence and customer-first service.”
