Jim Hawk Truck Trailers to open first Texas shop

Jim Hawk Truck Trailers, a 53-year-old semi-truck trailer dealership, is opening its first Texas location in Fort Worth on September 1. Founded in 1972 by James V. Hawk, the company also operates Hawk Equipment, which specializes in construction and agriculture trailers.  

“Expanding into Texas is more than growth—it’s a continuation of the values our grandfather instilled in us,” said Jim Hawk III, president of Jim Hawk Truck Trailers. “We’re proud to bring the Jim Hawk name, service, and commitment to Fort Worth and beyond.”

In additional to sales and parts, Jim Hawk Truck Trailers provides truck and trailer service and repair, preventative maintenance, custom welding and fabrication, equipment installation, fleet refurbishment programs, reefer, van, and flatbed repair, and more. Across its eight locations, the company features 85 service bays, over 100 service experts, and over 1,400 years of experience.

With the addition of the Fort Worth location, the company will have nine locations in total. It also plans to open four more shops across Texas over the next five years.

“This is a natural next step in our growth,” said David Hawk, CEO of Hawk Investments, the parent company of Jim Hawk Truck Trailers. “Texas is an essential transportation hub, and we’re excited to serve customers there with the same service-first culture that’s defined us for more than five decades.”
