Gincor Werx Announces the Acquisition of Wiltsie Truck Bodies Ltd.

Ontario's Gincor Werx recently acquired Wiltsie Truck Bodies Ltd., effective February 29, 2024.

Wiltsie brings expertise, tradition, and devotion to custom truck body designs. They offer a diverse line of rugged and dependable products including dump trucks and truck bodies along with pony trailers and flat decks. Located in Aylmer, Ontario, Wiltsie also offers parts and service to all their customers for truck body repairs, sandblasting and painting, custom fabrication, wheelbase changes and lift-axle calibrations. Gincor is proud to carry on the Canadian-owned tradition that Russ Wiltsie and his family have been running for over 60 years.

Luc Stang, President, and CEO of Gincor Werx shared his thoughts noting that "We are pleased with the opportunity to build on the foundation of the Wiltsie family business from the Aylmer, Ontario, community. This foundation and its client base have been built by men and women who have a passion for the industry where it all happens. It's all about the people and that's what makes this latest acquisition a great fit for all stakeholders. We look forward to bringing Gincor Werx to the former Wiltsie Truck Body team to help enrich the lives of each other and those we serve and partner with. Welcome to the family."
