The five winners of Kinedyne’s 2013 MATS Sweepstakes include:
Dennis Doyle, Farm Boy Inc.
Dennis Doyle is an owner-operator located in Flemingsburg, Kentucky who has been in business since 2006. The company has a Dry Van, Step Deck and Flatbed trailer that primarily hauls seasonal flowers, but also transports a variety of other loads for clients. Dennis is eager to use his prize money towards several of Kinedyne products, including their Logistic ratchet straps.
Wayne Davidson, C&W Gooseneck Services
Wayne Davidson is an owner-operator based in Lewisberg, Ohio who services all of the United States with his gooseneck flatbed trailer. Operating since 1995, Wayne has specialized in hauling portable pumps, greenhouses, and special commercial loads. Wayne looks forward to purchasing Kinedyne ratchets and straps, along with the rubber strap protector sleeves, which he anticipates will come in handy given the variety of cargo he carries.
Lawrence Davis, Davis Express Trucking LLC
Lawrence Davis is an owner-operator located in South Bend, Indiana who has been driving for 28 years. Lawrence operates a van that mainly transports kitchen cabinets. With the delicate nature of his shipments, Lawrence is excited to use his shopping spree to purchase Kinedyne ratchet straps and load bars, which will help ensure his cargo is secured with the best products available on the market.
Jonathan Terry, J.D. Terry
Jonathan Terry is an owner-operator with a single, flatbed operation that hauls a variety of stone, lumber, and oversized items. Jonathan has been in business for the past five years servicing the southeast region of the U.S. As he is quite familiar with the Kinedyne brand, and has used their winch straps for several years, Jonathan will be applying his shopping spree toward Kinedyne cargo control products he has yet to try, such as the Polar and Tiger tarp ties.
Joe Westleigh, J&M Westleigh Inc.
Joe Westleigh has been working as an owner-operator for 15 years. With one tractor and one trailer, he has specialized in hauling large equipment and military vehicles.
