North Central Utility opens new dealership in St. Cloud, Minnesota

Utility Trailer Manufacturing Co. announced that North Central Utility has opened a new dealership in St. Cloud, Minnesota. The new dealership is 27,000 square feet and offers reefer, dry van and flatbed trailers from Utility. The new facility features seven service bays, one of which is an isolated wreck bay, 5,000 square feet of parts warehouse, 2,000 square feet of parts showroom and 15 acres of trailer parking for inventory, service and rentals.

“We selected this specific location to open the dealership because of the continued growth to the northwest of the Cities and its equidistance from 3 of our existing locations in Eau Claire, Wisconsin; North Mankato, Minnesota; and Fargo, North Dakota,” said Dave Batterman, vice president of North Central Utility. “Our entire team is excited for the opportunities this new location will bring and we hope to host a grand opening event sometime in 2022.”
