Dex Heavy Duty Parts, a Volvo Group subsidiary and supplier of recycled, renovated and surplus medium- and heavy-duty truck parts, announced the opening of its facility in Oklahoma City.
It joins Dex’s current facility in Advance, N.C., to better serve owners of second- and third-generation trucks with recycled and renovated parts.
“Demand for our products has been growing, and this facility’s centralized location in the U.S., combined with its close proximity to major highways, will enable the easier distribution of parts with reduced delivery times,” Director of Operations Darin Redmon said in a company release.
Located on 25 acres, the 153,000-square-foot facility underwent a $5 million renovation and upfitting to meet Dex’s needs. It will employ 30 employees.
“Through Dex, the Volvo Group is the only OEM that offers a complete life cycle channel for its products,” Redmon said. “Having an additional site will allow us to continue to reduce potential environmental impacts by offering recycled and renovated parts to customers across North America.” — Transport Topics
