The heavy vehicle industry is mourning the loss of Ivan Vodanovich.
The founder and Managing Director of Daysworth International passed away on Father’s Day.
Originally from Croatia, Ivan Vodanovich was born in Croatia in 1946, immigrating to Australia to escape communism in 1967.
Ivan founded Daysworth International in 1978, initially working out of his home garage on power steering, differential and tailshaft component remanufacturing.
Daysworth’s distribution and manufacturing of the Ottawa Terminal Tractor changed the way operators in the Australian road transport and port sectors operated.
Daysworth have sold over 3,000 Terminal Tractors, and are rightfully regarded as a vital innovator in Australia’s transport industry.
