The companies will both operate out of the Inland location at 209 Yukon Lane. It will be managed by Don Linder, who previously managed Inland's Billings, Montana, location.
"When we expand into a new area it naturally brings a high level of excitement to the business," Linder says. "Moving into Belgrade and then quickly adding driveline services to our offering should allow us to deliver a great value to the heavy-duty trucking industry here in Belgrade."
The Belgrade location is Inland's third in the state and 37th location. Other facilities are in Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas and Wyoming.
"The Belgrade-Bozeman area is the fastest growing market in Montana and a great fit for Inland," says Greg Klein, president and CEO of Inland. "Adding this location will help us better serve our customers in Montana. Now, customers will get what they need faster and more efficiently."
Inland will celebrate its 80th anniversary next year.
"Employee ownership and a solid, value-added business plan is the foundation the company was built on, but having dedicated and talented people is what has allowed us to endure and thrive for eight decades," Klein says.
