VIPAR Heavy Duty announced it added three distributor members to its VHD Equipment Network: Nelson Truck Equipment Co. (Kent, Wash.), Custom Truck & Equipment (Kansas City, Mo.) and Truck Equipment, Inc. (Green Bay, Wis.).
With the expansion, the network, now in its third year, has 17 distributor members representing 46 locations throughout the U.S. and Canada.
“We have seen our network expand as distributors understand how we can help them become more profitable in their local market by becoming part of our larger network,” said Chris Baer, vice president, VIPAR Heavy Duty. “We have demonstrated that we have the tools for distributors to build more profitable relationships with suppliers, enhance their cash flow and improve their bottom line.”
The VHD Equipment Network offers membership to commercial vehicle truck equipment distributors in a national marketing group. According to the announcement, it takes advantage of the experience and expertise of VIPAR Heavy Duty in the heavy-duty aftermarket to focus on the North American commercial vehicle truck-mounted equipment market.
