Inland Truck Parts & Service (ITP) announced its addition of two Texas businesses to its footprint of stores. The new stores will allow the company to better meet the repair and equipment needs of truck owners in the southwest region.
The first acquisition is Drive Shafts Unlimited, located in San Antonio. It has been repairing all types of drive shafts for years in San Antonio and surrounding areas, and the services they offer will be complementary to the parts and services offered by Complete Gear Services, whom ITP acquired in May of 2017.
The second acquisition, Truckers Equipment Inc., is headquartered in Corpus Christi, Texas, with satellite locations in Pharr and Harlingen. They have served the truck equipment needs of southern Texas since 1936 and have a reputation for outstanding service and support. With these two acquisitions, ITP has positioned themselves to reach entirely new groups of customers all the way to the southern tip of Texas.
