Power Heavy Duty says Zaragoza Truck Parts in New Mexico has joined the network.
Founded in 2022 by Othoniel Alvidrez in Artesia, N.M., the shop specializes in truck and trailer parts and service. It provides suspension work, preventative maintenance, engine repair and tire service.
"Our business grew out of our own experience in the trucking industry," says Othoniel Alvidrez Jr., purchasing agent at Zaragoza. "My father drove trucks for years, and getting parts often required traveling several hours or losing an entire day waiting on delivery. Opening Zaragoza Truck Parts was our way of solving that problem for ourselves and for other drivers and fleets in southeastern New Mexico."
Zaragoza's customer base includes owner-operators, local fleets, oil and gas field service companies, agriculture and dairy operations, and city and country service centers. It's product focus includes tractor and trailer parts and shop supplies.
"Joining Power Heavy Duty gives us access to a broader range of product lines and support tools that help us serve our customers more effectively," Alvidrez Jr. says. "It allows us to streamline purchasing, expand our offerings and increase awareness of the services we provide in this region."
Joe Meyer, vice president of business development for the VIPAR Heavy Duty Family of Companies, says Zaragoza is a strong addition to Power Heavy Duty.
"They have built a solid local reputation for customer service and parts availability," he says. "Their focus on long-term growth reflects the values that define Power Heavy Duty and our commitment to independent distributors serving fleets and owner-operators."
