Parts for Trucks Acquires Fleet Brake Parts & Service

Parts for Trucks announced the acquisition of Fleet Brake Parts and Service.

The deal creates a national network of locations providing parts and service to the heavy-duty trucking industry, with 32 parts warehouses and 15 service facilities, coast to coast.

"We're really excited to bring these two great companies together." Luke MacKenzie, Parts for Trucks President says, "We think it will bring significant benefits to our employees, our customers, and our vendor partners."

Except for the Atlantic region, locations will keep the Fleet Brake banner. "Fleet Brake has been a family company since its inception in 1978," says Tim Douglas, Fleet Brake President. "With the Parts for Trucks acquisition we have found a great home!"
