CALGARY, AB — Ryder System has opened a new “state of the art” pre-owned truck sales facility in Calgary, at 4535 8A Street N.E.

The 7140-sq-ft shop, now open for business, sits on 1.78 acres of land and will feature a reconditioning operation where pre-owned vehicles are serviced. The operations included in this new facility were previously located at a shared Ryder commercial rental location elsewhere in the city. It will now solely service pre-owned commercial vehicle sales customers.

“Ryder is committed to offering the greatest selection of pre-owned commercial vehicles for sale at prices that make sense for our customers in Canada,” said Michael Cagney, Ryder Canada director for asset management. “As the Alberta market grows, we’ll grow with it. With our new facility, we can provide customers in Alberta with more quality pre-owned commercial vehicle options in a larger, more modern space that is dedicated solely to their purchasing needs.”

A grand opening event will be held from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm on Wednesday, July 13, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 11:00 a.m. Refreshments and entertainment will be provided.

The new store will be open Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. It’s conveniently located near the 32nd and Deerfoot intersection.

Ryder sells more than 17,000 vehicles a year from over 59 used truck centers across North America, including six in Canada.
