“Simply the Best”
Dennis Brown started in business when the company he was working for was sold and with no offer of a job, Dennis took matters into his own hands and purchased a R Model Mack tipper and three-axle trailer. As a trained panel beater and painter, he tidied up the Mack and went in search of work. That was 1988 and today Dennis and his son Ike continue serving Eltham as Dennis Brown Transport Ltd. Ike has worked for the family business since 2006 more recently driving a 2009 Kenworth K108 before the arrival of the new K220. These days Ike runs predominantly up to Auckland with the odd trip to destinations across the North Island.
