Dealer news
South Wales DAF dealer, Watts Truck and Van Centre, has received the business equivalent of a telegram from the Queen, a Companies House Centenary Certificate. The certificates are awarded in recognition of 100 years of registration as a limited company.
The Watts business began across the River Wye at Lydney in the Forest of Dean, well before the end of the nineteenth century. The limited company was formed after World War 1, after Arthur Watts travelled to Greece and bought 200 Albions, mostly chain-driven. They were repaired and converted from military spec to make them suitable for a sale to a variety of civilian businesses, including oil suppliers, dairies, breweries and general hauliers.
