Horton’s Britton, S.D., plant celebrated the production of its six millionth fan drive on Nov. 15, the company reported. The fan drive was manufactured for longtime Horton customer FleetPride Inc. of The Woodlands, Texas.
“We’re proud to reach the six million mark in Britton and delighted that FleetPride, a distributor we have worked with for more than 20 years, is part of this milestone,” said Jeff Lindgren, senior vice president of sales for Horton.
Lindgren, along with Horton’s Geert Henk Touw, president and CEO, and Tom Hujik, director, aftermarket/field sales N.A., presented the fan drive to FleetPride executives at a ceremonial event in Grapevine, Texas. FleetPride officials at the event included Robert Lindley, vice president of supply chain; Steve Vaughn, director of marketing; Rick Jackson, product manager; Bob Thorpe, corporate sourcing manager; and Jessica Shaffer, buyer.
"We are honored that Horton is celebrating this significant achievement with us," says Lindley. "FleetPride is pleased to offer Horton’s reliable, high-performance products to our customers throughout the U.S."
