the scope of the contract to include superstructure bodies, for example. Furthermore,
the DAF dealer takes care of all maintenance planning and administration, thereby enabling transport companies to concentrate on their core business.

Focus on core business thanks to DAF MultiSupport
Claus Hansen, CEO at Baton Transport: “When purchasing trucks, our most important
criteria are functionality, driver comfort, safety and total cost of ownership. DAF MultiSupport gives us a clear picture of the overall costs. This means that the trucks will be
well-maintained in the long term and guarantee maximum uptime, while minimising
workshop invoices. DAF’s tailor-made repair and maintenance service contract allows
us to get on with our core business.”
