MEET CRAIG 👋

Part of the Cooke Howlison Team for 33 years, and in 2026 Craig made the move to GMSV ….. and we reckon he’s found his kind of crowd. 😎

🚛 Role: GMSV Brand Manager

🔥 Pride & joy: His 1983 Chevvy C10 Pickup

🎵 Road trip soundtrack: I Won’t Back Down — Tom Petty

🏔️ Best spot ventured: Up the valleys of the upper Manorburn

🎣 When he’s not around big trucks: You’ll find Craig fishing or spending time with the family.

And the best part about GMSV?

The motto. LIVE BIG. Truck it. 🤘

With 33 years of knowledge, Craig knows a thing or two about vehicles — and now he’s bringing all that experience to the world of GMSV.

Welcome to the big guns, Craig. 👊

We're spreading the Christmas Cheer! 🔔

This morning we had the pleasure of donating and distributing hundreds of Christmas cakes to Meals on Wheels and other local organisations in Dunedin and Balclutha, in partnership with the Marsh Family Trust. This is a long-standing and very special tradition and one that we always get such heartwarming feedback from ❤️

A special thank you to the talented bakery team at New World Centre City who once again baked the most beautiful cakes for us!
