Custom Truck One Source recently acquired Great Pacific Equipment, a distributor of construction and utility equipment serving the southwest region of the US for the last 40 years.
With offices in Fontana and Bakersfield CA, Great Pacific’s existing management will partner with Custom Truck’s management, continuing to provide the western United States with equipment and service while growing the business as part of Custom Truck.
“The addition of the Great Pacific team and its locations to the Custom Truck family is very exciting,” said Custom Truck CEO Fred Ross. “We are now able to better serve our customers in the western US, continuing our commitment to the expansion of our footprint.”
In addition to Great Pacific’s crane offerings, Custom Truck will expand its sales and rental fleet into the region, offering chassis and track-based equipment for the utility, forestry, railroad, construction, propane, oil & gas and heavy equipment industries. Both the Fontana and Bakersfield locations will be part of Custom Truck’s nationwide aftermarket parts and services network, providing service to both existing and new customers.
“These are exciting times for our industry as well as for our future with Custom Truck,” said Tony LiRocchi, owner of Great Pacific. “Partnering with Custom Truck will allow us to take full advantage of the growth in the construction, utility and infrastructure industries over the next few years. The Great Pacific employees are excited about being a part of it.”
