Kenworth Truck Co. has achieved a significant milestone with the recent opening of its 400th dealership location.
Rihm Kenworth opened Kenworth’s 400th dealership in Minnesota City, a suburb of Winona, Minn., which is more than 100 miles southeast of the Twin Cities.
The 16,600 square-foot, full-service dealership will offer customers 12 service bays, including a wash bay and two-hour truck diagnostics through Kenworth PremierCare ExpressLane. The shop, 3,000 square-foot parts department, and drivers’ lounge are already open for business.
Rihm Kenworth – Winona is located at 6830 Martina Road, on 5-1/2 acres along U.S. Highway 61, which connects to U.S. Interstate 80 and U.S. Interstate 35.
Last year, Rihm Kenworth also broke ground on two new facilities — one in Coon Rapids, and the other in South St. Paul. After the expected mid-February opening of the new 68,000 square-foot full-service location in South St. Paul, it will serve as Rihm Kenworth’s new corporate headquarters. It represents an investment by Rihm Kenworth of nearly $13 million.
