Petro-Canada Lubricants partnership with Freightliner Manitoba continues to grow
Petro-Canada Lubricants, a Suncor business, has announced the latest growth phase of its partnership with Freightliner Manitoba, North America’s leading medium and heavy duty diesel and specialized trucks dealership and NationaLease member, to now include six Freightliner maintenance facilities across the province of Manitoba.
To date, Petro-Canada Lubricants has had responsibility for Freightliner Manitoba’s heavy duty engine oil supply in Winnipeg, specifically for its innovative Transolutions Preventative Maintenance (TSPM) solution.
TSPM delivers preventative maintenance services based on the needs of the vehicles in accordance to manufacture specifications, with the ability to design dynamic solutions specific to a fleets requirements.
