Wabash, a leader in supply chain solutions, has opened a new Parts and Services facility in Gary, Indiana. Strategically located along I-65, the center provides faster access to parts, service, and truck body upfitting for customers across Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Iowa.

Wabash (NYSE: WNC), a leading provider of end-to-end supply chain solutions for the transportation, logistics, and infrastructure markets, has opened a new Parts and Services center in Gary, Indiana. Strategically located along I-65, one of the nation's busiest freight corridors, the facility offers faster access to parts, service, and truck body upfitting for customers across Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Iowa.

The new Midwest facility is part of Wabash's broader effort to scale its national Parts and Services platform through new upfit centers, an expanded dealer network, and a growing roster of preferred service partners. These investments aim to improve parts access, reduce downtime, and provide more responsive support to fleet operators nationwide.

The Parts and Services business at Wabash has shown strong structural growth, with upfit volumes on track to more than double in 2025. The new Gary facility delivers a one-stop shop for Wabash Genuine Parts and its Ready-to-Mount (RTM) truck body program, with in-stock dry and platform bodies ready for rapid turnaround in a few weeks. Additionally, the facility will support refrigerated truck bodies and provide diesel truck repair services, expanding support for fleets in a high-demand region.

"We see Parts and Services as the connective tissue between manufacturing and long-term customer support," said Brian Bauman, vice president of retail services at Wabash. "As we continue to grow this platform, we're not just expanding our footprint; we’re creating durable value and adding stability to the business, even in a challenging market."

The Gary site follows the recent opening of Wabash's Atlanta-area Parts and Services center and joins existing facilities in California, Florida, Georgia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Texas, with additional locations planned for 2026. Wabash's expansion strategy underscores its commitment to enhancing its supply chain network and improving operational efficiency for its customers.
