DexKo Global announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Dexter Axle Co., acquired National Trailer Parts Warehouse (“National Trailer Parts”) located in Swift Current, Saskatchewan, Canada.
National Trailer Parts supports manufacturers, dealers and service centers in Western Canada, offering the top-brand trailer components in the industry. Employing more than 20 people, National Trailer Parts services customers directly from their warehouse in Swift Current with their own fleet of trucks, focusing on offering a wide selection of top brand trailer components with a knowledgeable, professional staff, the company said.
Dexter, headquartered in Elkhart, Ind., employs more than 3,800 people in the U.S. and Canada and operates 17 manufacturing facilities and 32 distribution locations. Founded in 1960, Dexter said it has earned a reputation as a trusted brand serving the utility trailer, RV, marine, heavy duty, agricultural and specialty equipment manufacturers and distribution partners.
“We see great value in adding National Trailer Parts to the Dexter business, extending our quality products and exceptional customer service in western Canada, furthering our customer relationships,” said Fred Bentley, CEO of DexKo Global.
Adam Dexter, president and CEO of Dexter, added: “The valued employees and loyal customers will fit nicely within Dexter’s distribution group, and we look forward to joining our two companies together. National Trailer Parts fills a void in our coverage of Western Canada and will allow us to more effectively service that customer base.”
