DexKo Global Inc., the global leader in highly engineered trailer running gear, chassis assemblies, and related components, recently announced that its wholly owned subsidiary Dexter Axle Company has acquired National Trailer Parts Warehouse, Ltd. located in Swift Current, Saskatchewan, Canada.
National Trailer Parts supports manufacturers, dealers, and service centers in Western Canada by offering trailer components. Employing over 20 people, National Trailer Parts services customers directly from its warehouse in Swift Current with its own fleet of trucks.
Dexter, headquartered in Elkhart, is Noble County’s largest employer with a plant in Albion. It employs over 3,800 people in the U.S. and Canada and operates 17 manufacturing facilities and 32 distribution locations.
Founded in 1960, Dexter serves the utility trailer, recreational vehicle, 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,” Fred Bentley, CEO of DexKo Global, said in a news release.
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.”
Keith Brown, managing partner of National Trailer Parts Warehouse, said, “Since 1992, we have been distributing trailer parts and components to our customers in Western Canada. Through that long period of time, we have enjoyed loyal support from our customers, extraordinary effort from our employees and reliable, timely supplies from our vendors. These three factors, in combination, are the success ingredients that define what we do and who we are.”
