FleetPride Acquires Jim’s Truck & Trailer Equipment

FleetPride Inc. has acquired the assets of Jim’s Truck & Trailer Equipment in Wichita Falls, Texas. Founded in 1971 and owned by Jim Martin, the company provides customers in north Texas and southwest Oklahoma with a wide assortment of parts and services for heavy-duty trucks and trailers, including engine, transmission, drivetrain and diagnostic work.

“We have been very proud to serve the Wichita Falls community for the past half-century,” said Martin. “With the backing of FleetPride’s strong nationwide network of parts and service locations, we are excited to continue our tradition of service and raise the bar even higher for our customers.”

The new Wichita Falls FleetPride branch will include the company’s 60th Service Center. FleetPride now has 29 locations in its home state of Texas, more than any other state. The company’s network of parts and service locations is also backed with additional support from FleetPride’s e-commerce solution.
