The owner of Mellor Coachcraft and Treka Bus, Woodall Nicholson Group, has announced the acquisition of VCS Ltd, a specialist vehicle manufacturer. VCS Ltd will strengthen Woodall Nicholson Group’s customer offering within the emergency services sector. Together with Woodall Nicholson’s existing business CM Specialist Vehicle Division, this acquisition offers its customers a ‘more complete offering within critical and complex sectors’ such as the Police Service, Fire Brigade and both private and NHS vehicle requirements.

The business will benefit from the growth opportunities that Woodall Nicholson Group’s scale, broader customer portfolio and international operations will bring.

Frank Barrett, CEO of Woodall Nicholson Group, commented: “This is a fantastic addition to the Woodall Nicholson family and provides additional growth opportunity for the group and we’re delighted to add further expertise and resource to our existing skillset within the group.

We can now accelerate our agenda on lightweight ambulance construction and innovative designs. The electric vehicle development already existing within Woodall Nicholson is something that is very much on the VCS strategy for the UK’s first electric ambulance.
