Kenworth Opens Flagship Facility in Edmonton, New Video Shows Shop in Action
Edmonton Kenworth recently opened a major, new full-service dealership with 42 service bays in Leduc, Alberta.
The sales and service space is impressive. Edmonton Kenworth – Leduc is on 16 acres at 8202 42nd Street near the Edmonton International Airport. It features an 111,500-square-foot main building with an indoor showroom large enough for customers to view up to four Kenworth trucks out of the elements. The main building also offers several specialty bays to provide service for fabrication, component rebuild and liquefied natural gas-powered commercial vehicles, four triage bays to provide customers rapid diagnostic reports, plus a 37,000-square-foot parts department providing customers access to more than $5 million worth of parts inventory.
A second 17,000-square-foot building features four quick-lube service bays for preventative maintenance service, two drive-through wash bays and two alignment bays.
The maintenance facility has recently been featured in a new video, showcasing Kenworth’s selection of heavy duty vehicle lifts from industry leader, Stertil-Koni. These lifts were selected and installed with the support of Westvac Industrial, the exclusive Stertil-Koni distributor serving Western Canada.
“The greater Leduc area is at the heart of the oil patch industry, so this location with its proximity to a major north-south route and close to the airport just seemed a natural choice. Plus, with the strong affinity that oil patch operators have for Kenworth trucks, we wanted to provide our customers a facility that can offer them a stellar level of support,” said Gary King, Edmonton Kenworth president.
