ABOUT TREK-GROUP
Trek-Group is a range of companies all linked to automotive and transport industries.
The privately owned business was founded in 2000 and now employs more than 500 staff in engineering, sales, manufacturing, automotive dealerships, fleet rental, supply, parts and design.
Trek-Group’s flagship company, Equi-Trek, pioneered rear facing and side loading horse transport more than 20 years ago when the first trailer came on to the market, followed by the company’s first motorised horsebox in 2007. By 2012 the company launched Moto-Trek and began building motorhomes, followed by the launch of Hire-Trek in 2016; a hire provider of specialist vehicles, from ambulances to trailers and horseboxes.
OUR MANUFACTURING SITES
The headquarters are at Stocksbridge, Sheffield, on a 75-acre site that is now home to a trailer servicing and vehicle sales and hire company (Trek-Trailers Sheffield), a state-of-the art paint and bodyshop (Auto-Trek) and the Equi-Trek and Moto-Trek manufacturing.
Trek-Group diversified to the blue light vehicle conversion market with the acquisition of Cartwright Vehicle Conversions, based near Doncaster, in 2020 and SVP in 2023, situated near Colchester.
Our Chesterfield site is home to Mould Ability, a professional mould, pattern making and fibreglass manufacturer.
The group also owns five retail outlets across the UK, including The Journey Centre, Trek-Trucks and the Trek-Trailers dealerships.
