Drive Products announces merger with Del Equipment Inc.
Robert Edmonds, President and COO of Drive Products, and Paul Martin, President of Del Equipment today are pleased to announce the purchase and sale of DEL Equipment’s business operations across Canada. The result of this merger will be historical, and we will see the establishment of the largest truck upfitting operation in Canada. DEL with a history of 75 years and DPI with 37 years of history creates an industry presence, leading to opportunities and capabilities developed by both companies for the truck upfitting industry. This merger will create greater truck upfitting capacity in Canada for Drive Products, and span light duty, through medium duty and into the heavy-duty class 7 and 8 truck marketplace. Essentially, if you have a truck that needs upfitting to do work, no matter what size, "we can do it”.
