Bergstrom adds WheelTime to roster of distributors and service centers

June 3, 2013
WheelTime consists of 18 member companies that provide installation and warranty support through nearly 200 service centers.

Bergstrom Inc., a global leader in the design and supply of climate systems to the commercial vehicle industry, announced it has added WheelTime, a truck service provider with a vast network of locations across the United States and Canada, to its growing list of distributors and service centers.  

The WheelTime Network, which was established in 2004 as a strategic alliance among North America's Detroit Diesel Allison distributors, is one of North America's highest quality truck service networks. It consists of 18 member companies that provide installation and warranty support through nearly 200 service centers, 2,800 service bays, 3,000 factory trained technicians and 30 training facilities located across the United States and Canada.

As a result of this partnership, WheelTime will now be able to offer its customers Bergstrom's battery-powered NITE no-idle system as well as all Kysor products, one of the largest inventories of HVAC parts and HVAC systems on the market. Bergstrom customers, on the other hand, will now have access to a broader range of NITE and Kysor HVAC supplies at WheelTime locations.

"WheelTime is renowned for its fast turnaround times and dependable, high-quality service," said Joe Kirby, general manager, sales and director of global aftermarket at Bergstrom. "We're very excited about this partnership and the opportunities it provides in terms of growth in North America."

All 18 WheelTime members are an equity owner in the Network and have a vested interest in achieving WheelTime's exclusive truck repair service metrics and standards.

"We know our customers can count on the high-quality products from Bergstrom," said Chris Craddock, director for WheelTime. "This partnership will enhance our ability to service our customers by offering the industry leading no-idle system and consistently deliver quality truck repairs on time and on budget."
