This year’s finalists were again selected through an open nomination process by the independent aftermarket, and as usual, our crop of deserving businesses features several past finalists and a newcomer to the program.
The 2017 Truck Parts & Service Distributor of the Year finalists are: Action Truck Parts, Bolingbrook, Ill.; Drive Train Industries, Denver, Colo.; Harman Heavy Vehicle Specialists, Cambridge, Ontario; Potter Webster Company, Portland, Ore.; and Wofford Truck Parts, El Paso, Texas.
This is the third consecutive nomination for Harman HVS, and the second in a row for Action Truck Parts. Drive Train Industries won the second-ever Distributor of the Year award in 2003, while Potter Webster was a finalist in 2003 and 2008. Wofford Truck Parts is a first-time finalist for our annual award, which is graciously sponsored by Minimizer and Meritor.
As the independent aftermarket’s highest honor, the Distributor of the Year finalists are judged on customer service, product knowledge, business development and industry involvement. Each finalist will be profiled on this website and the pages of Truck Parts & Service this fall, with the winner to be announced at Heavy Duty Aftermarket Week (HDAW) in January in Las Vegas.
Congratulations to our finalists, and thank you to everyone who nominated a distributor for this year’s award.
