“We are pleased with our acquisition of DSC,” said Ryder President of Global Fleet Management Solutions Dennis Cooke. “We will operate the business as a key part of our West Region, expanding the capacity of our existing maintenance network, while adding new services in the area of body repair work.”
The acquired operation is located at 5115 S. Cockrell Hill Rd. in Dallas and is adjacent to Ryder’s existing Redbird truck rental and service location. The acquired location consists of a 5.87-acre property and 34,000 square feet of facilities, including 31 commercial vehicle maintenance bays, two paint booths, and two wash bays.
Ryder’s Dallas Service Center facility is open for vehicle maintenance from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Monday through Friday; office hours are 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. For additional information about the new location and its services, call (214) 330-4661.
The acquisition, completed on September 29, 2017, is expected to be nominally accretive to earnings in 2017, according to Ryder, which “anticipates additional earnings in future years due to implementation of best practices leading to synergies, as well as improved productivity and safety as part of the Ryder network.”
