NORTH LAS VEGAS, Nev., Jan. 17, 2019 – Kenworth Sales Company recently broke ground on a new North Las Vegas, Nev., location at 4450 Donovan Way. It will replace the current facility on 3033 Losee Drive. The 65,000 square-foot facility will include 27 service bays, expanded parts inventory, new and used truck sales, as well truck rental and leasing. Seventy-five employees will be at this location, creating about 20 new opportunities.
“We are excited to have Kenworth here. Trucking is the lifeblood of this town. We live in the desert and without trucks we would have nothing,” said North Las Vegas Mayor John Lee, who was on site for the groundbreaking.
“This new store will allow us to better facilitate the needs of our customer base in the Las Vegas area,” said District Manager Lynn Cusey of Kenworth Sales Company. “Kenworth has been servicing this area for many years. We are always looking for ways to better serve our customers and look forward to enhancing customer experience with this new, state of the art location.”
Boyd Martin Construction is heading up the project with the help of a number of local subcontractors. Kimley-Horn is the local engineer, while the design is by NBW Architects. Financing is provided by Zions Bank.
“It is important to us to use local businesses in this project,” stated Kenworth Sales Company President Kyle Treadway. “We want to support and work with our neighbors in an effort to be good contributors to the community today and moving forward.”
Founded in 1945, Kenworth Sales Company began as a “Mom & Pop” business in Salt Lake City and has since grown to more than 800 employees at 22 branch locations in seven western states (Wyoming Idaho, Nevada, Washington, Montana, Oregon and Utah).
