Linehaul Heavy Duty was formed in August when Michael Thiers and his wife Courtney Bennett purchased the Fairfield, Ohio branch of Republic Diesel.
According to Vipar, Linehaul’s core business is in heavy-duty truck parts, servicing both on-highway and vocational customers in the metro Cincinnati, northern Kentucky, southeastern Indiana and western Ohio area. With a strong focus on wheel-end and undercarriage parts, Vipar says the company’s inventory also includes a broad offering of the industry’s best known products and brands. In addition, Linehaul Heavy Duty provides flywheel resurfacing, hydraulic hose service and general drive-in truck repair.
“We are pleased to welcome Linehaul to the Vipar Heavy Duty family of distributors,” says Jim Pennig, Vipar vice president of business development. “Though new to the marketplace as Linehaul, their business has a strong reputation among customers for its great selection of products and outstanding customer service.”
Prior to starting Linehaul Heavy Duty, Thiers was sales manager for Republic Diesel since 2006.
