(FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE) GALLATIN, Tenn. – July 12, 2022 – Wil-Ro, Inc., a leading truck body manufacturer based in Gallatin, Tenn., signed three new distributor partners in Q2 2022 and noted sales up 15 percent compared to the previous quarter. The company continues to focus on innovation and aggressive growth moving into the year’s second half.

“We’re thrilled to welcome these companies to the Wil-Ro Distributor Network,” said Joshua J. Coster, President & Owner of Wil-Ro, Inc. “Despite shared industry hurdles, we’re experiencing momentum with Wil-Ro sales up nearly 15 percent this quarter compared to Q1 2022, and June marked the largest volume of truck bodies delivered year-to-date. We are committed to helping our customers thrive in this challenging market.”

Wil-Ro remains optimistic for supply chain and chassis shortages to improve later this year into early 2023.

Innovation is in the air at Wil-Ro in 2022 as the manufacturer Wil-Ro launches its highly anticipated Liberty Flatbed this quarter, combining customer-favorite elements of Wil-Ro’s Utility Flatbed and Skirted Flatbed. Plus, Wil-Ro will be rolling out improved truck body features, including new latches and headboard designs.

Wil-Ro recently won Top Workplaces by the Tennessean for the second consecutive year. Based solely on employee feedback gathered by a third-party surveyor, this award measures 15 culture drivers. Wil-Ro’s unique approach to culture runs deep, and it is in the spirit of each team member. Building off its core values, Wil-Ro has created a new position for Quality Inspection, which will help reduce quality issues on truck bodies.

“The quality inspection position adds a ton of value to Wil-Ro’s product,” said Sean Smith, Team Leader in Product Finishing at Wil-Ro. “Quality in a service or product is not what you put into it—it’s what the customer gets out of it.”
