Spartan RV Chassis’ parent company, The Shyft Group, will build a new service body operation in Lebanon, Tennessee, just east of Nashville.
The new 70,000-square-foot facility will serve truck dealers, distributors and fleet customers in surrounding states, including new chassis pools for expanded dealer sales and support.
“Outstanding synergies from our two service body brands located on opposite coasts along with accessory brands that provide truck headache racks and lighting packages have resulted in strong sales growth,” said Daryl Adams, president and CEO, The Shyft Group. “Bringing them together to provide a one-stop work truck solution in the Nashville market, one of the fastest growing U.S. economies in a state that reaches 50 percent of the country’s population within a 650-mile radius, will only further accelerate that growth.”
The facility will serve the company’s service body and accessory brands including Royal Truck Body, DuraMag, Magnum and police car upfit and light accessories from Strobes-R-Us.
