Volvo Group Opens Dex Heavy Duty Parts Facility in North Carolina
Volvo Group company, Dex Heavy Duty Parts, recently celebrated the grand opening of the Dex facility in Advance, North Carolina with a ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Dex, a Volvo Group subsidiary and leading supplier of recycled, renovated and surplus medium- and heavy-duty truck parts, offers new life to trucks by offering recycled and renovated parts to second- and third-generation truck owners.
Noted Dennis Slagle, president of Volvo Group Trucks Sales North America, “Dex Heavy Duty Parts takes old trucks and recycles them – refurbishing some parts for resale and recycling others for reuse – which is not only a natural extension of our business, but perfectly exemplifies our core value of care for the environment.”
Added North Carolina Governor Pat McCrory,“It’s always great to see companies move to North Carolina and we appreciate Dex Heavy Duty Parts’ commitment to our state and environment. Employers know North Carolina is a great place to invest because of our friendly business climate, infrastructure and talented workforce.”
The Volvo Group invested $2.6 million into the renovation of the 210,000 square-foot Dex building, the site of a former textile storage facility. The building is located on 38 acres near a major highway, enabling the easier transportation of materials.
