CITY OF INDUSTRY, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Utility Trailer Manufacturing Company, LLC is pleased to announce that Utility Trailer Sales Southeast Texas and Utility Trailer of Dallas have joined forces to form one unified company: Utility Trailer of Texas, Inc. Based in Houston and led by company president Jonny Loring, the new organization brings together decades of experience and shared commitment to delivering exceptional customer service.
With a combined 11 locations and over 140 service bays across the state, Utility Trailer of Texas is also positioned for continued growth. Plans for expansion to open new stores, including in the Fort Worth and Austin markets, will further strengthen statewide coverage and enhance service capabilities.
Jonny Loring shared his enthusiasm, “We are very excited to align with the Dallas operations and thrilled to welcome the Dallas team to our organization. Bo Watson will take the lead on sales and marketing of our Cargobull TRU and telematics offerings.”
Bo Watson added, “The timing was right for our two companies to come together. We can now offer our customers 24/7 service throughout the entire state of Texas, a requirement in the TRU industry.”
