The Cadiz-Trigg County Economic Development Commission, is pleased to announce that Wabash National Corporation (Parent company to Transcraft/Benson located in Cadiz), is establishing a Wabash National Trailer Center in Cadiz, Kentucky.
WNTC is a national system of Branches that supplies heavy trailer parts and service for practically every brand of trailer and dump truck on the market, not only Wabash, Transcraft and Benson. Prime examples would be Great Dane, Vanguard, Strick, Trailmobile and many others. The WNTC Parts and Service Cadiz Branch can draw from Parts Distribution Centers that have in inventory or access to tens of thousands of parts in short order if they are not on hand in the Cadiz Branch. Service (trailer repair) is provided by a partnership with Carr’s Heavy Equipment near the Branch. The Branch can also provide new third party trailers that are built to order, including Dynaweld, Pitts, Construction Trailer Specialists and others. The Branch also collaborates with David McCraw with Classics to locate and distribute used trailers to outlying Wabash Centers.
The Branch is located at 2595 Hopkinsville Road. Roy Monday has been hired as Parts Manager and reports to Donnie Holland with Wabash National Corporation. The operation intends to create 10 jobs within two years and anticipates to add additional job opportunities with future growth. Roy Monday, Parts Manager can be reached at 1 877 429 5181 or cell at 1 270 206 5566.
There will be a Grand Opening on August 25, 2011 from 11:00 – 2:00. There will be various vendors participating in the opening and hot dogs and hamburgers will be served. At 11:30 there will be a Cadiz Chamber Ribbon cutting event. We hope you can come out and support our grand opening!
