Since the opening of Star FAW’s commercial truck dealership in the Vaal Triangle in 2022, it has quickly built up its name as a dedicated and trustworthy dealer in medium and heavy vehicles, engineered to meet the harsh conditions on the African continent. During the past festive season Star FAW was officially opened on the Star Motor Group’s premises next to Barrage Road in Vanderbijlpark, also home to Star Nissan Vanderbijlpark and Star Chery Vanderbijlpark.

Edwin Strauss, CEO of the multi-awarded Star Motor Group, is delighted by the enthusiasm with which Star FAW was welcomed by local trucking companies, thus emphasizing the need in the Vaal for a service provider in the local heavy vehicle arena.

“FAW Vehicle Manufacturers SA is the fastest growing trucking brand in South Africa and prides itself on providing value for money. This, in combination with supplying a world-class product, has made the company one of the country’s frontrunners in the truck industry. To open Star FAW in the Vaal was a logical business decision,” says Edwin.

The popularity of the FAW Trucks model range has been endorsed by the fact that the 10 000th unit has already rolled off their South African production line.

“The Vaal Triangle has an incredible number of truck and transport companies, which until now had to get their heavy vehicles serviced mainly in the Alberton and Witwatersrand area. For local customers’ convenience, Star FAW now offer complete mechanical services in their workshop right here in the Vaal. We service not only FAW brands, but ALL makes of heavy vehicles no longer under a manufacturer’s warranty. In this way, an essential need and vacuum in the local market is filled,” says Edwin.

Dealer Principal Mathew Anderson stands at the helm of Star FAW. He and his team of experts share Edwin’s vision to expand the company’s focus and to develop it into the most successful truck franchise and biggest provider of mechanical services in the Vaal.

“Our products and services are not limited to trucks but also include trailers. We are an energetic and motivated team, thoroughly trained and determined to provide the best service in the industry. We want to be the one stop dealer and service provider for the commercial industry and are equipped to look after all their needs –  both cash clients as well as those who need assistance with financing,” says Mathew.
