Cooper Kenworth adds new location

May 4, 2012

Cooper Kenworth has opened a new location in Asheville, NC, its 10th facility in the U.S. The center is located less than a mile from the Smokey Park Highway underpass at Exit 44 off Interstate 40.

The 31,000-sq.-ft. parts and service operation features 14 service bays, with one bay dedicated to offering Kenworth PremierCare preventive maintenance services, and a 7,000 sq.-ft. parts department. There is also a spacious driver’s lounge, Cooper Kenworth said.

“This is a great site for our newest location,” said Russell Laing, vice president of Cooper Kenworth. “It offers ample space for truck and trailer parking and great visibility from Interstate 40, the nation’s third longest east-west interstate that extends west to Barstow, Calif., and east to Wilmington, N.C. Plus, the Asheville location has a modern alignment machine, as well as full certifications for Paccar MX and Cummins engines.”

Cooper Kenworth also has locations in Clinton, Concord, Durham, Greensboro, Hickory, Raleigh, Rocky Mount, South Charlotte and Wilmington, NC.
