Wabash National (WNC) said late Monday it inaugurated a new parts and service facility in Gary, Indiana, as part of efforts to scale its parts and services platform via new upfit centers.

The facility, located along I-65, is expected to improve access to parts, services, and truck body upfitting as well as reduce downtime across Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Iowa, according to a statement.

The facility will provide Wabash genuine parts as well as its ready-to-mount truck body program alongside support for refrigerated truck bodies and diesel truck repair, the company said.
