New Body Shop and Parts Warehouse: Kriete Truck Center - Madison
Starting July of 2018, a remodel plan began for the two existing buildings at Kriete Truck Center – Madison. The vision evolved to adding an entirely new building, dedicated to body shop work. Remodel work on the existing facility continued, but on October 21st, 2019, Keller Inc. helped break ground on the new facility. After a year and a half of renovation and construction Kriete Truck Center – Madison completed the $2.4 Million project. Kriete Group’s investment in this facility is continued proof that we are dedicated to our customers needs and keeping your trucks on the road. Your Uptime is our priority.
An official Grand Opening event will be planned in the future, but the completion of this project is still a significant milestone and a major increase in the level of service Kriete Truck Center – Madison can provide.
The new building will focus on truck collision repair, truck body upfitting, paint, and all other truck customization needs. But to focus on these specialized needs, Kriete Truck Center – Madison needed to bring a lot to the table, not just with physical space and equipment, but also with a dedicated workforce.
