Mack Trucks is owned by the Volvo Group, the Swedish commercial vehicle manufacturer that acquired Mack (via Renault’s truck division) in 2000–2001 and has kept it as a subsidiary since then.

Who owns Mack Trucks now?

  • Mack Trucks, Inc. is currently a subsidiary of the Volvo Group (AB Volvo), the Swedish commercial vehicle group that also owns Volvo Trucks and Renault Trucks.
  • Mack became part of Volvo when AB Volvo bought Renault Véhicules Industriels (Renault’s truck division) in 2000–2001, and Mack came along in that deal.
  • Volvo Cars (the car brand) is a separate company from AB Volvo, so Mack is not owned by the same company that owns Volvo passenger cars.

Quick history of ownership

  • 1900–1967: Mack operated independently after being founded as Mack Brothers Company in 1900.
  • 1967: Acquired by Signal Oil & Gas (later The Signal Companies), moving it under a diversified industrial group.
  • Late 1970s–1990: French automaker Renault gradually bought into Mack, reaching full ownership in 1990 through Renault Véhicules Industriels.
  • Since 2000–2001: AB Volvo acquired Renault’s truck business (including Mack), making Mack Trucks a Volvo Group brand where it remains today.

Common confusion (Ford, Geely, etc.)

  • Mack has never been part of the Ford Motor Company, even though Ford once owned Volvo Cars and that sometimes causes mix‑ups.
  • Zhejiang Geely Holding owns Volvo Cars, but only holds a minority investor stake in AB Volvo; it does not directly “own” Mack Trucks.

Bottom line: When people ask “who owns Mack Trucks,” the current answer is the Volvo Group (AB Volvo) , not Ford, not Renault alone, and not Volvo Cars.
