Doepker acquires Edmonton Trailer
ANNAHEIM, SK — Doepker Industries has expanded its product line considerably, acquiring Edmonton Trailer Manufacturing (ETM) based in Acheson, Alberta. Dirk Woestenenk, previously general manager at ETM, has joined the Doepker team as heavy haul division manager. The entire product line, including sliding tilt decks, lowbeds, crane dollies, jeeps, and boosters, will be manufactured and supported by Doepker and its 54 authorized distribution locations.
“This is a great fit within the strategic growth plan of Doepker,” says president and Chief Executive Officer Evan Doepker. “We have been looking for ways to grow our capabilities and this addition enables us to supply a proven design to both new and existing customers.
“Dirk brings many years of experience in the industry. Having him join the Doepker team adds to our bench strength and will ensure that the integration process is successful.”
Established in 1948, Doepker serves customers in the agricultural, commercial, gravel, logging, heavy haul, and energy sectors.
