Schwan's Home Service, Inc., deployed 200 Roush CleanTech E-450 cutaways with plans to lease an additional 400 units by the end of 2018, totaling 600 vehicles.

After more than 40 years of using propane as a motor fuel, the people at The Schwan Food Co. still believe they’ve got the right stuff. Schwan’s experience with propane goes back to the 1970s, when Arab oil embargoes threatened supplies of gasoline and diesel and drove up their prices.
