FleetPride Opens New Branch In Bossier City
FleetPride, an independent aftermarket distributor of heavy-duty truck and trailer parts, has opened a new location in Bossier City, to extend its reach into northwest Louisiana.
The company said that the new location will be led by branch manager Bob Davis, who brings 29 years of experience in heavy-duty truck and trailer parts. Mr Davis’s Bossier City team includes heavy duty professionals with over 60 years of heavy-duty truck and trailer parts experience.
Lee Stockseth, vice president of operations and central region at FleetPride, said: “With the opening of the Bossier City branch, FleetPride is better positioned to serve local and national customers in northwest Louisiana that were previously served remotely through Kilgore, Texas.”
Mike Paxton, vice president of business development and strategic planning at FleetPride, said: “Much of FleetPride's recent growth has been primarily acquisition-based, however, in select markets or situations like the Bossier City-Shreveport market, a greenfield strategy of building a new location from the ground up is more appropriate. As we continue to further our national reach, we intend to use both acquisitions and greenfields to increase marketshare.
