New England's Largest Independent Truck Leasing Company Acquires Patsy's PacLease
Kris-Way to Continue Demand for Local Alternative
CONCORD, NH – March 1, 2010- Kris-Way Truck Leasing, Inc. is pleased to announce that it has acquired Patsy's PacLease of Concord, NH. As a result of the acquisition, Kris-Way adds service in Concord, several quality accounts, and is now a PacLease affiliate in Maine and New Hampshire. PacLease is the leasing arm of Paccar, Inc. the parent company of Kenworth and Peterbilt trucks.
According to Tom Keefer, President of Kris-Way, "Patsy's PacLease has a 30 year history of providing Full Service Leasing to some of New Hampshire's finest companies including New Hampshire Distributors, Central Paper, and Amoskeag Beverage. We look forward to carrying on their tradition of strong service and personal attention." Like Patsy's, Kris-Way is a locally owned and operated company.
Tony Waterman, President of Patsy's PacLease said the decision to exit the Full Service Leasing business was not one that was taken lightly. "We knew we wanted to eventually make this move, but we wanted to find the right company that could give the type of service our customers were accustomed to."
Kris-Way Truck Leasing, Inc. is New England's largest independent truck leasing company. The Patsy's acquisition will add approximately 8 customers and 100 trucks. Kris-Way currently serves over 110 customers and maintains a fleet of over 2,500 pieces of equipment. Customers include Hannaford, Sysco, Performance Food Group, Dunkin' Donuts, and LL Bean.
