LEYLAND and Albion interests overseas are likely to be amalgamated on the pattern which has already been laid down in South Africa. There, as reported in The Commercial Motor on March 13, Leyland-Albion (Africa), Ltd., has been formed. The company is already functioning, although it will not be officially registered until October I.
Mr. Henry Spurrier, managing director of Leyland Motors, Ltd., said, last week, that sales and service depots staffed by factory-trained personnel would cover every corner of South Africa. The assembly plant near Johannesburg would become a major repair depot, and complete vehicles would be assembled at Cape Town and
Durban. There would also be an assembly plant at Salisbury and a depot at Bulawayo. Others would be set up in Northern Rhodesia.
