GOOD NEWS * USA - Delta truck business springs back to life
Breslau,Pierce County,NB,USA -The Record, by Rose Simone -March 26, 2010: ... Delta Truck Equipment, a specialized truck service business, has been resurrected under new ownership from the ashes of Delta Spring & Chassis, which closed its doors in February after the former owner, Edmonton-based Raydan Manufacturing Inc., placed Delta Spring and the Sturdy Truck Body business in Baden into receivership... Sturdy’s assets are still in the hands of the receiver, PriceWaterhouseCoopers Inc., but Delta has managed to find a new owner and recently reopened its doors after hiring back 16 of its 26 former staff members... Leon Lukasik, the new president of the business, which has been renamed Delta Truck Equipment, said that as soon as he heard Delta Spring had closed, he got together with financial backers and began negotiations to buy it... Lukasik said he looks forward to bringing his knowledge of hydraulics and truck mounted equipment into the business. “We will be expanding our reach into the marketplace,” he said...
