CMV Group

From a staff of five in 1934, the CMV Group now operates substantial operations in automotive dealerships and horticulture predominately in South Australia and Victoria, employing more than 1,600 staff. Having been in the automotive market since the 1960’s through the sale of Toyota vehicles, CMV Group has since expanded this range and now has a range of automotive businesses including: CMI Toyota, Lexus of Adelaide, Mercedes-Benz Adelaide and Southside Suzuki. CMV Group provides new and used, small, medium and heavy duty trucks, trailers and buses, and parts and service support across its many truck franchises. These include: CMV Truck and Bus, Kenworth DAF Adelaide, South Central Trucks, Hallam Truck Centre, Bayswater Truck Centre, CMI Hino, and Watts Transport Spares. In 1978, the Farms division was created, with the aim to contribute to the prosperity of the CMV Group through a diversification into the agricultural field. Currently specialising in wine grapes, pistachios and almonds, CMV Farms has land in Langhorne Creek and Loxton in South Australia, and Lindsay Point and Robinvale in Victoria. As part of its focus on giving back to the community, CMV also administers the CMV Foundation, a charitable trust which channels the Group’s distributable profit back into the community through donations to worthy causes. Since its formation in 1953 by the late Sidney Crawford, substantial funds have been donated, developing social responsibility and awareness whilst assisting those less fortunate.
