DAF Trucks - Quality without Compromise

The well-known truck manufacturers DAF have been established since 1928, when Dutchman Hubert van Doorne founded the company after repairing the car of a brewery manager several times. Brewery manager Huenges was so impressed with Doorne's work that he financed him to start up a small business, repairing vehicles on the brewery grounds. In 1932, van Doorne's brother Wim joined the company and its name was changed to Van Doorne's Aanhangwagen Fabriek (Van Doorne's Trailer Factory), which was abbreviated to DAF.

The Second World War led to a great scarcity of luxury trucks and cars. This created a big opportunity for DAF, who in 1949 began to manufacture trailers, buses and trucks. 1954 saw Hubert van Doorne begin to use a belt-driven system in his vehicles after taking the belt-drive idea from the many machines used in his factories. The system proved very popular and successful; 4000 cars using the innovative system were quickly ordered by an excited public.

DAF trucks went on to become perhaps the best-known truck company in the world, winning many awards, such as International Truck of the Year, a number of times. The brand quickly became synonymous with high-quality, reliability and safety. In 2011, the company manufactured an estimated 51,800 trucks on its three European sites.
